What is a Santoku Knife?
The Santoku is a beloved all-purpose knife from Japan. Its name translates to "three virtues" or "three uses," which refers to its excellence at the three core cutting tasks: slicing (fish), dicing (vegetables), and mincing (meat). With its versatile shape and relatively flat profile, it's a staple in both home and professional kitchens, adept at handling a wide variety of ingredients with ease.

Key Features
- 17-Layer Damascus Steel: The blade features a core of high-performance VG10 steel, clad on each side with 8 layers of softer stainless steel. This creates the beautiful, rippling Damascus pattern and provides the perfect combination of a hard, sharp edge with a tough, stain-resistant exterior.
- Tsuchime (Hammered) Finish: The hand-hammered texture on the upper part of the blade creates small air pockets, which reduce drag and help food release easily from the surface for effortless slicing.
- Premium VG10 Core: The VG10 stainless steel cutting core is heat-treated to a hardness of HRC 60-62, ensuring it takes and holds an incredibly sharp, long-lasting double-bevel edge.
- Elegant Redwood Handle: The comfortable, Western-style handle is crafted from beautiful redwood, offering a warm, secure grip and excellent durability.
