Collection: Santoku Knives

The Santoku knife is often said to be the Japanese equivalent of the chef's knife, in that it lets you efficiently handle a great many different cuts. As a result, you can slice, chop and mince a wide variety of foods. In fact, this Japanese word literally means "3 good things", referring to the meat-vegetables-fish triptych.

At Wusaki, we offer a wide selection of Japanese Santoku knives, as good-looking as they are high-performing. Indeed, each of our 9 collections of professional kitchen knives has its own take on the iconic Santoku, to meet your most specific needs and wants.

The materials chosen for our handles are among the most exotic and distinguished wood species available, so you can choose a light wood handle with the Santoku Fujiko VG10 series, or dark ebony wood with the Santoku Ebony AUS8 series, for example.

As for the blade, a wide choice awaits you! Want to equip yourself with a hammered Japanese steel and a dimpled finish? Our Santoku Damas VG10 will be your most reliable ally. Would you rather go for an alloy from a 100% handcrafted 3-layer San Mai forge? Then choose the elegant Santoku Nogami BS2, you won't be disappointed!
