A high-quality chef’s knife is the most important tool for both professional chefs and home cooks and serves as the kitchen’s all-purpose knife. The Santoku is a Japanese-style chef’s knife characterized by its wide blade and only slightly curved cutting edge. The spine curves sharply downward towards the tip. Unmatched in versatility, the Santoku is an excellent choice as an all-purpose kitchen knife. Slicing, dicing and mincing ingredients can all be done quickly and efficiently with a Santoku. The granton edge reduces friction and helps ingredients that tend to stick, such as potatoes and cucumbers, release more easily from the blade. The blade is made from a premium steel alloy specifically selected for its intended purpose. Thanks to the composition of the steel, the knife can be sharpened again and again to razor-sharpness. It also retains its edge for a long time and does not become dull quickly. The handle, made from modified maple, is beautiful, unique and comfortable to hold. Modified maple is produced using a patented process in which the cellular structure of the wood is permanently altered. This improves the material’s properties and gives it a deep, beautiful colour. The result is an exceptionally strong and long-lasting handle. Another advantage of modified maple is its easy maintenance: the handle does not require oiling or treatment, and normal cleaning is sufficient. Do not place a wooden-handled knife in the dishwasher. Wash it by hand and dry it with a clean kitchen towel. The knife is supplied in an elegant gift box. Blade length: 17 cm.
