The Santoku knife is a Japanese all-purpose tool characterized by its round tip and shorter, thinner blade, making it ideal for home cooking. The term "Santoku" literally means "three virtues," reflecting its versatility in handling meat, fish, and vegetables. Each Yoshihiro knife is meticulously handcrafted by master artisans, ensuring that every piece is a unique work of art.

This knife features High Performance SLD steel, a cutting-edge material engineered in Japan to surpass the capabilities of traditional metals. Known for its high wear resistance and hardness that rivals blue high carbon steel, SLD offers a balance of sharpness and stain resistance. This exceptional combination allows for a knife with long edge retention and stainless durability. The Damascus construction further enhances the steel's hardness, with layers ranging from 33 to 35, adding both functionality and stunning aesthetics to the blade.

Designed with a thin blade profile, this Santoku knife effortlessly cuts through ingredients while minimizing surface abrasions. Its brilliant mirror finish not only enhances its visual appeal but also simplifies cleaning and maintenance.

Complemented by a handcrafted octagonal Ironwood handle that provides comfort for both left and right-handed users, this knife also includes an optional lacquered Magnolia wood Saya cover for safe and convenient storage. From dicing and slicing fresh produce from the farmer's market to carving a roast chicken, even the simplest tasks are elevated with this handcrafted knife, blending beauty and functionality in every use.
