Santoku Knives
Japanese-Style All-Purpose Knives for Precision Cutting
Experience the "three virtues" of santoku knives—exceptional performance in slicing, dicing, and mincing with one versatile blade. These Japanese-inspired knives feature a distinctive wide, flat profile with a sheep's foot tip that curves down to meet the cutting edge. Typically measuring 5 to 7 inches, santoku knives offer better control than longer chef's knives while providing more cutting surface than smaller utility blades.
The santoku's unique design excels at precise, clean cuts with minimal rocking motion. The flat edge maintains more contact with the cutting board, making it ideal for push-cutting techniques and creating uniform vegetable cuts. Many santoku knives feature Granton edges—small oval indentations along the blade—that reduce friction and prevent food from sticking during slicing. This makes them particularly effective for preparing vegetables, boneless meats, and delicate ingredients.
From trusted manufacturers like Microtech, Kershaw, Spyderco, and Victorinox, these santoku knives bring Japanese cutting philosophy to your kitchen with exceptional sharpness and control.
