The Azuma 7" Santoku Knife embodies the essence of Japanese culinary design—balance, precision, and versatility. Its shorter length, wide profile, and slightly curved edge make it the go-to blade for everyday prep, while its name, Santoku (“three virtues”), reflects its mastery of slicing, dicing, and mincing. From finely chopped herbs to thin meat slices and precise vegetable cuts, the Santoku delivers speed and accuracy with unmatched ease.

Forged from VG10 steel, the blade combines razor-sharp performance with exceptional edge retention and corrosion resistance, ensuring it stays sharp through countless meals. The wide blade doubles as a scoop for efficient ingredient transfer, while the gray and black pakka wood handle offers an ergonomic, slip-resistant grip for comfort and control during extended use. Elegant, durable, and efficient, the Azuma Santoku is a chef’s trusted everyday companion.
