Detailed information

Product detailed description

Santoku 165mm 33V Sakai Kikumori

Most home cooking usually revolves around one main knife. Santoku embodies this most frequently used tool in the kitchen and, thanks to its shape and reasonably long blade, naturally handles the daily preparation of vegetables, meat, and fish. The 33V Sakai Kikumori Santoku has a laminated blade with a Japanese VG10 stainless steel core and a Damascus cladding. Its balance, with the center of gravity shifted slightly forward, supports a smooth cut and is ideal for push cuts, pull cuts, and brisk chopping of vegetables.

About the manufacturer

Materials and maintenance

The blade core is made of Japanese VG10 stainless steel. Thanks to its composition, it combines the advantages of carbon and stainless steel—it achieves high sharpness, has excellent edge retention, and at the same time resists corrosion. The handle is made of oak wood.


Wash the knife by hand only, dry it immediately after use, and store it in a dry place.

Good to know

Use the knife on a cutting board made of wood or another material that is gentle on the edge. It is not intended for cutting bones, pits, shells, hard woody stems, or frozen foods. Do not use it for prying or other lateral loading of the blade.


Do not wash the knife in a dishwasher or use a rotary electric sharpener. Keep it out of the reach of children and store it so that the blade is protected from damage and unintended contact.
