7" Santoku Custom

Custom 7" AEBL Steel Satin Finished Blade + Black Paper Micarta Bolster + Layered Carbon Fiber Spacer + Spalted Birch Handle + Black & Red G10 Liners

This is our modified classic Santoku. Employing full tang construction, this knife is a tried and true classic workhorse in the kitchen. The name "Santoku" means “three virtues” and depending on who you ask, the name either refers to the three types of foods it works with (proteins, vegetables, and fruit) or for the three types of tasks at which it performs extremely well, (slicing, dicing, and chopping). Though traditionally designed with a straight edge, our modified Santoku has just enough curvature in the belly allowing for a slight rocking motion if desired. It also features a full distal taper and flat ground blade with a convex edge for outstanding performance and food release. This knife is an absolute pleasure to use due to the blade being slightly shorter, lighter, and thinner, making it razor-sharp and able to glide through food with amazing ease. 

With innovative materials and meticulous design, we strive to deliver an indispensable tool that is not only functional but unique and beautiful as well. We take pride in crafting cutlery that allows you to be more versatile and productive in the kitchen, invoking creativity, whether you are making a meal for yourself, a feast for friends, or your loyal customers
