Nordic Kitchen Damascus Santoku Knife, 18cm

The Santoku knife has a particularly sharp blade that can be used for virtually all cutting tasks in the kitchen - meat, fish, or vegetables.

The Santoku knife is also known as the Asian alternative to the chef’s knife. It is easier, faster and sharper than an ordinary chef’s knife. The scallops – or kullens – make working with the knife even easier, as meat and vegetables fall away easily from the narrow blade. It is particularly suitable for cutting wafer-thin slices or small cubes with great precision.

Eva Solo's Nordic Kitchen knives have been manufactured according to Japanese knife-making traditions, employing the same techniques used to make samurai swords.

Skilled metalworkers have laid 67 layers of Japanese Damascus steel (AUS 10) to create the remarkably strong blade. In addition, the blade edge has a Japanese angle of 13-15° on each side ensuring maximum sharpness without compromising on flexibility.

The handle is shaped according to the hand’s anatomy. The bolster is designed so that you can rest your thumb on it, allowing you to apply optimum pressure and for greater precision. The spine of the blade is rounded.

The knives are extremely durable with a hardness of 60 HRC.

The chef’s knife is suitable for virtually all cutting tasks in the kitchen requiring razor-sharp performance, and is therefore the preferred choice of chefs.
