Our Yoshihiro Hayate ZDP-189 Super High Carbon Stainless Steel Santoku is a state-of-the-art handcrafted Japanese chef's knife that stands at the forefront of cutting-edge culinary tools. Crafted from ZDP-189, a high carbon steel known for its exceptional performance, this blade maximizes cutting efficiency and edge retention like no other. With a Rockwell Hardness (HRC) scale of 66-67, the ZDP-189 core retains its superior edge for an extraordinary period of time, making it perfect for professionals who require high-performance knives for high-volume prep work throughout extended hours.

The ZDP-189 core is clad in softer stainless steel to enhance durability and ease of maintenance. Complemented by an ambidextrous premium ebony wood handle with a sterling silver ring, this knife offers a comfortable, ergonomic grip that feels seamless in either hand. A protective lacquered magnolia wood saya cover is included, which is easy to clean, resistant to stain and odor, ensuring the knife remains pristine when not in use. Hand wash with a mild cleanser and avoid placing in a dishwasher. NSF approved and handmade by skilled artisans in Japan, this knife represents an exceptional level of craftsmanship and unrivaled performance.

The Santoku knife is one of the most versatile and popular tools a cook can own, often regarded as the all-purpose Japanese chef’s knife. Perfect for dicing, slicing, and chopping, whether you’re preparing fresh produce from the farmer's market or carving a roast chicken from the oven, this knife elevates even the most basic tasks. With its blend of beauty and functionality, the Santoku is a quintessential tool that enhances every kitchen experience.
