To preserve the stunning natural grain and mechanical longevity of the authentic beechwood handle, please avoid the dishwasher and never leave the knife soaking in a wet sink. Simply hand-wash the blade with warm, soapy water after use, wipe it dry immediately, and store it safely in a knife block. An occasional light coat of food-safe mineral oil on the timber will keep your Santoku looking pristine for decades!\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Zen","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48528205283428,"sku":"YO001819","price":91.95,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0713\/6487\/0244\/files\/N_119SantokuKnifeParallele1.png?v=1780662531","url":"https:\/\/www.greenhousepolytunnels.com.au\/products\/opinel-n-119-santoku-knife-parallele-premium-multi-purpose-japanese-style-kitchen-knife","provider":"Greenhouse \u0026 Polytunnels","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
