The Santoku knife, a classic in Japanese kitchens, translates to "three virtues," symbolizing its proficiency in slicing, dicing, and mincing. With a shorter, versatile blade and a balanced design, it's ideal for a range of tasks, from cutting meat to chopping vegetables, making it a beloved all-purpose tool.

Easy to maintain starter

Very robust easy starting point for Japanese knives, not prone to torque fractures. Very good quality for the money.

Not the best edge geometry it edge retention.
