Santoku Knife from F. Dick – Precision Cutting Without Resistance
The F. Dick Active Cut Santoku Knife combines Japanese knife-making tradition with modern technology. This versatile 18 cm kitchen knife, featuring an X30Cr13 steel blade and an ergonomic plastic handle, gives you precise control when preparing meat, fish, and vegetables. The knife's distinctive hollow-ground dimples along the blade minimise friction during use.
Ideal for finer cutting of fruit, vegetables, and smaller pieces of meat and fish, where precision and control are essential.
Specially Designed Blade with Hollow Dimples
The 18 cm blade in X30Cr13 stainless steel, with a hardness of 54° HRC, ensures both durability and sharpness. The specially designed hollow dimples along the blade significantly reduce resistance during cutting, preventing food from sticking to the blade. This makes the knife particularly well suited to slicing thin pieces of soft ingredients such as tomatoes or raw fish, where ordinary knives often struggle. The result is more precise cuts and less frustration in the kitchen.
Ergonomics and Hygiene in One Design
The non-slip PPO handle (polyphenylene oxide) provides a secure grip in all conditions – even with wet hands. The seamless transition between blade and handle eliminates bacteria-harbouring crevices, significantly improving hygiene in busy kitchens. At 180 g, the knife has an ideal weight balance that reduces wrist fatigue during extended use. The ergonomic design suits both professional chefs and home cooks who value precision and comfort.
Maintenance and Durability
For optimal longevity, the knife should be washed by hand and dried thoroughly after use. Although the steel is stainless, careful maintenance will ensure the knife retains its sharpness and finish for longer. Store the knife protected in a knife block or with a blade guard to keep the edge sharp and safe. The knife's hardness of 54° HRC makes it easier to resharpen than harder Japanese knives, whilst still holding a good edge for daily use.
With the F. Dick Active Cut Santoku Knife you get:
• A versatile 18 cm knife with non-stick properties through innovative hollow dimples
