Santoku knife, 18 cm, Icel Maître, with Granton edge

Santoku knife with Granton edge for precise cooking

This Icel Maître Santoku knife with an 18 cm blade combines Japanese knife tradition with modern functionality. The beautifully forged stainless steel blade with a Granton edge ensures that food does not stick to the knife during use. With a hardness of 56 HRC and an ergonomic synthetic handle, you get a knife that sits comfortably in the hand and retains its sharpness for a long time.

Ideal for precision work with vegetables, fruit, smaller cuts of meat and fish, where smooth cutting performance truly comes into its own.

Japanese-inspired design with practical benefits

The Santoku knife is designed specifically for the Japanese chopping technique, where the blade is guided in a smooth, gliding motion. The wider blade provides stability, whilst the Granton edge prevents food from sticking to the blade during use. This makes the process more efficient, especially during repetitive cutting tasks such as finely chopping onions or herbs. The well-considered weight balance of 150 grams makes the knife comfortable to use even during extended sessions.

Durable material for long-lasting sharpness

The forged stainless steel with high carbon content gives the knife a hardness of 56 HRC, meaning the blade edge stays sharp for longer. The combination of the hard steel and the ergonomic synthetic handle ensures both durability and comfort. The knife requires minimal maintenance – simply hand-wash and dry after use, as it is not dishwasher safe. With proper care, this Santoku knife will be a reliable companion in the kitchen for many years.
