Furi Pro East/West Santoku Set 2 Piece

Hand wash in warm soapy water with the blade pointed away, then dry immediately. Do not leave the knife submerged, place it loose in a drawer or put it through a dishwasher. Maintain a conventional double-bevel edge with the correct sharpener; specialist serrated or damaged blades may need professional attention. The listed 25-year guarantee is domestic unless the supplier confirms commercial coverage.

Judge a set by useful coverage, not piece count. A compact trio can outperform a large block if every blade is used. Look for genuinely different roles—paring, utility, santoku or cook's, bread and carving—then decide whether a sharpener, fork, case or storage block adds value. All knives still require safe separated storage and hand washing.

About Furi: Established in 1996 and developed through Australian engineering and chef input, Furi occupies a practical performance position between entry-level stamped knives and specialist artisan cutlery. The brand's signature is ergonomic problem-solving: the reverse-wedge handle is shaped to lock into the hand and reduce forward slip and fatigue, while seamless blade-to-handle construction removes the rivets and scales that can trap food. Furi Pro blades use high-performance Japanese stainless steel; current Tech Edge models may specify X50CrMoV15 steel, a hand-sharpened 26-degree included edge and 55–57 HRC, but those specifications should be applied only where listed. The range is intentionally task-led, covering santoku, cook's, paring, utility, filleting, carving, bread, vegetable and cleaving geometries, plus Diamond Fingers edge maintenance and unusually design-conscious blocks and racks. Choose Furi when comfortable secure handling, easy hygiene, clear blade roles and coordinated visible storage matter more than the prestige or maintenance ritual of a handmade high-carbon Japanese knife. Knives should be hand washed, dried immediately, sharpened appropriately and stored with edges separated. The supplier generally lists a 25-year domestic guarantee; commercial buyers should confirm duty suitability and coverage.
