Victorinox Santoku Knife

A Santoku is a Japanese-style knife that functions as a hybrid between a cleaver and a chef's knife. It typically has a flatter blade profile and a shorter length than a traditional Western chef's knife, making it excellent for precise slicing, dicing, and mincing vegetables and proteins.

The Granton edge features a series of small, scalloped indentations along the side of the blade. These create tiny air pockets between the steel and the food, which helps prevent slices—like cucumbers or potatoes—from sticking to the knife while you work.

Yes, this knife is dishwasher safe. However, for the best long-term maintenance of the blade's edge and handle integrity, we recommend hand washing with warm, soapy water and drying it immediately.

Ice-tempering is a heat-treatment process that enhances the molecular structure of the high-carbon stainless steel. This results in a blade that is not only harder and more durable but also retains its sharp edge significantly longer than standard stainless steel blades.

Absolutely. The ergonomic, slip-resistant handle is designed for a secure, comfortable grip regardless of hand size. Its lightweight construction—weighing just under 4 ounces—also makes it very easy to maneuver for extended prep sessions.

The lifetime warranty covers any defects in material and workmanship. It ensures that your investment is protected against manufacturing flaws, giving you peace of mind regarding the knife's long-term reliability.
