The HENDI Santoku Japanese knife is the Japanese alternative to the traditional European chef’s knife. Thinner and slightly shorter, it is designed to make clean, precise, quick cuts in a single downward motion. Ideal for chopping vegetables, dicing meat or mincing herbs, this knife takes its name from the word “Santoku”, meaning “three virtues”, referring to its three main functions: chopping, slicing and mincing.

Description

Made in Japan, it follows the tradition of Japanese design with a SUS 420J2 stainless steel blade, known for its good corrosion resistance and easy maintenance. The double-bevel blade offers effective cutting on both sides, making it practical for right- and left-handed users alike. With a hardness of around 53 HRC, it offers a good balance between sharpness and wear resistance, making it an excellent choice for everyday use, whether in a professional kitchen or at home.

The handle is made of poplar wood, adding a natural and elegant touch to the whole while ensuring a good grip. This material, both lightweight and pleasant to the touch, complements the knife’s understated, refined aesthetic. It is nonetheless recommended to hand wash this knife, as it is not dishwasher safe.

This knife is part of the HENDI range of Japanese knives, designed to form a complete set dedicated to traditional sushi preparation and other precise cuts of Asian cuisine. It appeals both to Japanese cooking enthusiasts and to chefs looking for a reliable, effective and authentically styled tool.
