The compact version of the Santoku knife is a versatile companion for small meals and quick preparations. It offers nearly the same cutting capabilities as its larger counterpart and features the proven granton edge to minimize food sticking. Despite its shorter blade, it extends well below the handle, ensuring maximum comfort and safety.
The Blade
The Santoku II is forged from a single piece of stainless steel (steel grade 1.4116) and undergoes multiple ice-hardening processes. The finely polished blade surface and balanced rocking motion lines along the cutting edge ensure long-lasting sharpness and excellent cutting performance.
The Handle
The ergonomically shaped olive wood handle provides a secure and comfortable grip while adding an elegant touch. The wood is sourced from olive trees in Southern Europe that have reached the end of their lifecycle and no longer bear fruit. The blade and handle are seamlessly and permanently joined for maximum durability.
