Made in the renowned knife-making city of Seki, Japan, this 170 mm Santoku offers everyday versatility with Japanese craftsmanship. Whether you're slicing vegetables, preparing proteins, or tackling herbs, its balanced profile makes it an ideal all-purpose kitchen companion.
At its core lies VG10 stainless steel, prized for its excellent edge retention, corrosion resistance, and ease of maintenance. Surrounding the core are 33 layers of folded Damascus steel, creating the distinctive flowing grain pattern that makes every knife visually unique. The blade is finished with a refined Migaki (polished) finish, allowing the Damascus pattern to stand out while giving the knife a clean, elegant appearance.
The handle is crafted from richly colored Pakkawood, featuring deep brown and burgundy tones accented by a black ferrule and a thin white spacer. The result is a classic yet distinctive look that pairs durability with comfort, providing a secure grip for everyday use.
Whether you're purchasing your first Japanese knife or adding another reliable performer to your collection, this Santoku delivers exceptional cutting performance with the low maintenance of premium stainless steel.
