Description
VERSATILE SANTOKU KNIFE FOR THE HIGHEST PRECISION
The BLACK santoku knife is an indispensable kitchen knife for anyone who values precision and versatility. Thanks to its typically wide blade and slightly curved edge, it is perfect for slicing, dicing and chopping vegetables, meat and fish. The sharp damascus blade makes effortless cuts and delivers even results – a must for anyone who wants to stay in control of their cooking.
PREMIUM DAMASCUS STEEL – SHARPNESS THAT LASTS
Our damascus knives are made of 67 layers of high-quality steel with an extra-hard core. This combination of martensitic stainless steel and 316L stainless steel provides an impressive hardness of 60–62 HRC on the Rockwell scale, which means excellent sharpness and long edge retention. Modern vacuum heat treatment makes the blade particularly robust and resistant to rust – a decisive advantage over ordinary damascus knives.
The striking damascus pattern is not just eye-catching; it also bears witness to the elaborate forging technique that goes into every knife. Each knife is therefore unique and brings timeless elegance to your kitchen.
EXTREMELY ROBUST G10 HANDLE – STABILITY AND COMFORT
The handle of the BLACK santoku knife is made of black G10 – a highly compressed composite of fibreglass and epoxy resin. This material is not only extremely durable and moisture-resistant, but also non-slip and easy to care for. It offers excellent balance and optimal control with every cut, so the knife stays comfortable in the hand even during long cutting tasks. Its ergonomic shape adapts perfectly to the hand for a particularly safe and comfortable cutting experience.

Core steel and damascus
Why are our knives so sharp?
Our knives are made of high-quality damascus steel with a core of VG10 or a comparable premium steel, depending on the model. The core steel provides extreme hardness and excellent edge retention, while the outer damascus steel stabilises the blade and gives it an unmistakable look. The result is a perfect combination of robustness, durability and an exceptionally sharp edge – ideal for precise, effortless work in the kitchen.
The upgrade for your kitchen
A direct comparison shows it: where standard stainless steel reaches its limits, a genuine damascus knife is only getting started. The combination of a hard core steel and flexible outer layers gives our knives a sharpness and edge retention that leave ordinary kitchen knives far behind.
Our promise
30-day money-back guarantee
Because we stand 100% behind the quality of our products. Test your knife in your own kitchen – if it isn't right for you, you get your money back.
