Santoku Knife - VG10 - G10 - Black - 175mm - 508g

SENJEN Hammer Santoku - Precision tool with 67 layers of steel

The SENJEN Hammer Santoku knife combines traditional Japanese craftsmanship with Danish design. Featuring a 17.5 cm blade made from VG10 steel and 67 layers of Damascus steel, this precision tool slices through everything with minimal resistance. The black G10 handle provides a secure grip, while the raw, hammered surface of the blade adds character and reduces food sticking to the edge.

Perfect for precision tasks with vegetables, fruits, smaller cuts of meat, and fish, the wide blade offers excellent control and balance.

Japanese precision with Nordic strength

The Damascus blade with 67 layers of steel results from an ancient Japanese forging technique originally used for swords. This method produces an exceptionally hard blade (59-60 HRC) while maintaining flexibility. The VG10 core ensures outstanding sharpness that lasts even through intensive use. The hammered surface is not only aesthetically pleasing - it creates small air pockets that prevent food from sticking to the blade during use.

Professional balance and durability

Weighing in at 508 grams, the knife provides the weight and balance necessary for precise work. The G10 handle - a fiberglass-epoxy laminate - is extremely durable and resistant to moisture and temperature fluctuations. The stainless steel bolster ensures a strong connection between the blade and handle. The Santoku knife's design, with its wide blade, promotes efficient contact with the cutting board, making it particularly suitable for chopping and slicing tasks.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I maintain my SENJEN Hammer Santoku knife?

Always hand wash the knife with mild soap and dry it immediately after. Never use a dishwasher, as it can damage both the edge and the material of the handle.

What is the difference between a Santoku knife and a chef's knife?

A Santoku knife typically has a wider blade with a flat edge and a rounded tip, making it particularly good for cutting, chopping, and slicing tasks, while a chef's knife has a more pointed shape.
