Santoku Knife - Plate Steel - Black - 180mm - Air Cut - Plastic Handle

Granton santoku knife with air pockets - precision in every cut

This 18 cm Granton santoku knife combines the best of Japanese and Western knife traditions. With its wide blade and specially designed air pockets, the knife allows you to cut precisely through both firm and soft ingredients without them sticking to the blade. Weighing only 130 grams, this knife provides excellent balance and control during use.

Ideal for finer cutting tasks with vegetables, fruits, and smaller pieces of meat and fish, where precision and control are crucial.

Sheffield steel with air pockets for reduced resistance

The blade is made from high-quality Sheffield plate steel with a hardness of 56 HRC, ensuring a good balance between sharpness and durability. The characteristic air pockets (Granton edge) create small air pockets between the blade and the ingredients, significantly reducing resistance while cutting. This makes the knife particularly suitable for sticky ingredients like potatoes or thin slices of raw fish, where other knives often struggle with food clinging to the blade.

Ergonomic handling and professional control

The black polypropylene handle provides a secure grip even with wet hands. The knife's lightweight design at just 130 grams reduces strain on your wrist and forearm during prolonged use. The wide blade makes it easy to gather and transport cut ingredients directly from the cutting board to the pot. To maintain the knife's sharpness and longevity, hand washing and immediate drying after use are recommended, as dishwashers can damage both the blade and the handle.

Key benefits of the Granton santoku knife:

• Air pockets that prevent ingredients from sticking to the blade
• Versatile knife for precision cutting of vegetables, fruits, and smaller meat pieces
• Lightweight (130g) for excellent control and reduced fatigue during extended use
