F. Dick Santoku Knife with Granton edge – precision in every cut
The F. Dick Superior Santoku knife is a versatile 18 cm knife inspired by Japanese knife-making tradition. Crafted from stainless X50CrMoV15 steel with a hardness of 55 HRC and fitted with a Granton edge that prevents food from sticking to the blade. The ergonomic black synthetic handle provides a secure grip and excellent balance.
Ideal for precision work with vegetables, fruit, fish, and smaller cuts of meat, where the wide blade offers excellent control and the ability to transfer cut ingredients from the chopping board to the pan.
Sharpness and precision to a professional standard
The hand-sharpened and polished cutting edge ensures exceptional keenness, enabling highly precise cutting. The blade retains its edge for a long time thanks to the high-alloy X50CrMoV15 steel, which combines outstanding cutting performance with high corrosion resistance. The Granton hollows along the blade significantly reduce friction, making it easier to cut through even sticky ingredients without them adhering to the blade.
Ergonomic design reduces fatigue
The ergonomically shaped handle with three rivets provides a secure grip even with wet hands. The full-tang construction ensures perfect balance, reducing wrist strain during extended use. The seamless transition between blade and handle prevents bacterial accumulation, making the knife exceptionally hygienic – a decisive advantage in the professional kitchen.

Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between a Santoku knife and a standard chef's knife?
The Santoku knife has a wider blade with a straight spine and a tip that curves down towards the edge. It is typically lighter and shorter than a traditional chef's knife and particularly well suited to finer cutting tasks.
How do I maintain my F. Dick Santoku knife?
Wash the knife by hand with lukewarm water and mild washing-up liquid, and dry it immediately afterwards. Use a sharpening steel regularly and have it professionally sharpened when necessary.
