Santoku Knife with Granton Edge – Precision in Every Cut
This 18 cm Granton santoku knife combines the best of Japanese and Western knife-making traditions. With its wide blade and specially designed Granton edge, the knife allows you to cut precisely through both firm and soft ingredients without them sticking to the blade. The santoku knife weighs just 130 grams, providing excellent balance and control during use.
Ideal for intricate preparation work with vegetables, fruit and smaller pieces of meat and fish, where precision and control are essential.
Sheffield Steel with Granton Edge for Reduced Resistance
The blade is made from quality Sheffield sheet steel with a hardness of 56 HRC, offering a good balance between sharpness and durability. The distinctive Granton edge creates small air pockets between the blade and the ingredients, significantly reducing resistance during cutting. This makes the knife particularly well suited to sticky ingredients such as potatoes or thin slices of raw fish, where other knives often struggle with food adhering to the blade.
Ergonomic Handling and Professional Control
The black polypropylene handle provides a secure grip even with wet hands. The knife's light weight of just 130 grams reduces strain on the wrist and forearm during extended use. The wide blade makes it easy to gather and transfer cut ingredients directly from the chopping board to the pan. To maintain the knife's sharpness and durability, hand washing and immediate drying after use are recommended, as the dishwasher can damage both the blade and the handle.
Key benefits of the Granton santoku knife:
- Granton edge that prevents ingredients from sticking to the blade
- Versatile knife for precision cutting of vegetables, fruit and smaller cuts of meat
- Light weight (130g) providing excellent control and reducing fatigue during extended use
