Regular honing keeps the edge feeling sharp between sharpens.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Katana Saya","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":39683520102458,"sku":"012874","price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0072\/1875\/7690\/files\/KatanaSayaOliveWoodUtilityKnife12cmKSO-121.webp?v=1794483092","url":"https:\/\/aolcookshop.co.uk\/products\/katana-saya-olive-wood-utility-knife-12cm","provider":"Art of Living Cookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
