The santoku is the Japanese all-rounder: a shorter, taller blade than a chef's knife, with a flat edge for clean push cuts. Easy to control for vegetables, boneless meat and fish.

Why you'll love it

  • Short and easy to control. A 7" blade feels lighter and more precise than a long chef's knife.
  • Flat edge, clean cuts. Thin slices of onion, cucumber or chicken in a single push.
  • 73-layer Damascus, AUS-10 core. A hard Japanese stainless steel at the edge, layered steel around it.
  • Black G10 handle. Grippy and stable, even with wet hands.

What's in the box

  • 7" santoku knife
  • Blade sheath
  • Case

Care: hand wash, dry right away, store on a block or magnetic strip. No dishwasher, no glass or stone cutting boards. Read the care guide.

Why more than a $30 knife?

  • The steel. 73-layer Damascus steel, AUS-10 core, as stated by the manufacturer. A hard core steel takes and holds a thin, fine edge.
  • Made to be sharpened, not replaced. A few minutes on a whetstone brings the edge back, again and again.
  • No risk to try it. Free US shipping, and 30 days to return it unused.
