The Santoku is an Asian-inspired chef’s knife, slightly shorter than a traditional chef’s knife for added agility, lightness and maneuverability. The Damascus blade, a technique of layering steels, alternates between VG10 and VG2 steel, two premium-quality stainless steels, to provide a efficient blade with a long-lasting edge. The ebony PakkaWood handle is a traditional Japanese octagon shape yet gives the blade contemporary flair while providing a comfortable and secure grip. PakkaWood is genuine hardwood, infused with resin, resulting in a knife handle of low-maintenance and high quality.
