The Santoku knife, modeled after the katanas of the samurai.
The Japanese brand Kai manufactures knives that are internationally renowned for their quality. In addition to professional knives, the brand creates tools such as razors, scissors, and sharpening stones.
The Santoku knife is the most popular knife in Japan, as it is a more user-friendly alternative to the traditional vegetable slicer. Its blade is usually slightly curved and sometimes dimpled to facilitate cutting and to detach food from the sides.
This Santoku Kai knife is part of the Shun Classic range, which combines the traditional art of Japanese samurai sword forging with modern and sophisticated manufacturing processes. The range demonstrates a perfect blend of craftsmanship, technology, and design.
A perfect blend of craftsmanship and design
Featuring an 18cm blade made of exceptionally sharp VGMAX steel, with a high carbon and cobalt content, this professional Santoku knife has undergone a 32-layer Damascus steel process. This process blends layers of hard and soft steel, giving the blade both strength and flexibility. This ensures an excellent cutting edge while maintaining flexibility for added durability.
The blade offers a clean and precise cut, having been pre-ground to achieve a convex edge. It boasts a hardness of 62 HRC, allowing you to sharpen it less frequently.
This Santoku knife features a pakkawood handle, a premium material made of wood and resin compressed under heat. Its D-shape perfectly fits the contours of your hand. Ergonomic and practical, it's easy to grip and suitable for extended use. It's also resistant to temperature variations and water.
With its refined aesthetics, it meets the demands of food professionals. It is also suitable for individuals and enthusiasts looking for quality equipment.
