Are these knifes made in Japan or China?

I could not tell where the knife was made. It bears no country of origin. In the description information it refers to Japanese and under Country of Origin it also says Japan. How do you know where these knives are made; please tell me. Thank you very much. Mk

Dose this come with warranty if it breaks?

This knife is made of Damascus steel. unless you severely abuse it, like using it for a tire iron, It is not going to break. These people seem to be very big on customer satisfaction and if you did manage to break it I am sure they would replace it, I am sure.

Why does this Santoku not have the divots? Do veggies stick to the knife when slicing?

From here it looks like it does, unless you got the polished one, they will most likely have the stamp marks... the blackness kinda hides them, but no, I haven't had problems with anything sticking .

Is the blade full tang? Specifically does it extend through the handle?

It’s not a full tang, it’s a hidden tang. It runs the length of the handle, yes, but full tangs are the entire width of the handle
