Victorinox santoku knife – precision with Granton edge
This 17 cm Victorinox Swiss Classic santoku knife combines classic Swiss quality with Japanese knife design. With its wide blade and Granton edge, the knife prevents ingredients from sticking to the blade during cutting. The ergonomic wooden handle provides a secure and comfortable grip, even during extended use.
Ideal for precision cutting of vegetables, fruit and herbs, and also well suited to lighter tasks with meat and fish – though not for cutting through bone or cartilage.
Professional cutting precision in your kitchen
The santoku knife's wide blade provides stability, which is particularly advantageous when chopping large quantities of onions or other vegetables. The special air channels in the blade reduce friction between the knife and the ingredient, meaning less resistance and more precise cuts. The sharp blade with a hardness of 55 HrC ensures the knife stays sharp for a long time, allowing you to make fine dice, julienne or precision chops with minimal effort.
Durability and maintenance
The knife is made from quality sheet steel that is both hard-wearing and durable. The dark wooden handle not only provides a comfortable grip but also lends the knife an elegant appearance. To preserve the knife's quality and sharpness, hand washing and immediate drying after use are recommended. The knife is not dishwasher safe, as this can damage both the blade and the handle. With proper maintenance, this santoku knife will be a reliable companion in the kitchen for many years to come.
Technical specifications
The santoku knife has a blade length of 170 mm and weighs just 110 grams, making it easy to manoeuvre. The wide blade with Granton edge combined with the sharp cutting edge makes the knife highly effective for both routine and precision work. The knife's balance between weight and size ensures less hand fatigue, even during extended use.
