Santoku Damascus 170 mm – Hand Forged Professional Chef’s Knife (European Handle)

The Santoku chef’s knife is a versatile kitchen essential, designed for precision and control across a wide range of cutting tasks.
With its 170 mm blade and balanced profile, this Santoku performs beautifully for slicing, dicing and chopping vegetables, meats and herbs.

Featuring a European-style handle, this knife provides a comfortable and intuitive grip that many cooks find easier to adapt to than traditional Japanese handles — ideal for both home chefs and professionals.

This Santoku is hand forged from Carbon Steel 1095 and 15N20 using the Damascus technique, creating a layered steel structure that delivers durability and a unique visual character with every piece.

The handle is crafted by hand for comfort, balance and reliable control during extended use.

Each blade is carefully sharpened by hand using Japanese water stones to ensure a consistent and reliable cutting edge.

We recommend washing the knife by hand after each use and drying it immediately.
DO NOT USE DISHWASHER.

The blade will naturally develop a patina over time. This phenomenon does not affect the performance or quality of the knife and is a natural characteristic of carbon steel.
