Are you looking for an all-purpose kitchen knife? Then a santoku knife is definitely recommended. The knife originates from Japan and can be translated to 'three virtues'. This means that with a santoku knife you can cut, chop, and slice meat, fish, and vegetables. This Japanese kitchen knife is therefore a very handy addition to any kitchen. Like other Japanese kitchen knives, a santoku knife has no bolster and the cutting angle hovers around 19 degrees. This distinguishes the knife from 'Western' knives.
At cooking store Cookinglife, you will find various santoku knives from renowned brands such as Wüsthof, Blackwell and Sambonet. We are an official dealer of these top brands. We always deliver quickly from our own stock.
Are you looking for a kitchen knife of absolute top quality? Then we can recommend a Blackwell santoku knife. Blackwell is a Dutch brand with extensive experience in Japanese kitchen knives. The knives are characterized by the extremely hard steel, the precision with which the blades are sharpened, and the handles that fit perfectly in the hand. Several Blackwell knives have won awards for their design, cutting qualities, and ergonomics. A Blackwell santoku knife consists of several layers of stainless steel. This makes the knife highly resistant to corrosion and other external influences. The santoku knife is also sharpened at an angle of 15 degrees, making the knives exceptionally sharp. In our range, you will find various Kai Shun santoku knives, including options of 15 or 18 centimeters.

The santoku knife has its origins in Asian cuisine; it is essentially a Japanese chef's knife. Characteristic of the knife is that the blade is almost uniformly wide along its entire length, only tapering at the tip. The average blade length of a santoku knife is about 18 centimeters. Compared to a European chef's knife, a santoku knife is slightly lighter and smaller. You also use the knife somewhat differently than a European chef's knife, which you can read more about below. The knife can be used for a wide range of tasks, such as cutting, chopping, dicing, and more. This makes it a versatile knife and a valuable addition to any kitchen.
As mentioned, a santoku knife is a true all-rounder. You can use it for cutting, chopping, or slicing meat, fish, and vegetables. But it is also well-suited for finely chopping herbs or peeling garlic. Do you have a lot of coarse cutting and chopping work to do in the kitchen? No worries! You can confidently entrust that to the santoku knife.

Cutting with a santoku knife is different from cutting with a traditional chef's knife. The flat blade swings with a motion from back-to-front down onto the cutting surface. As a result, the blade loses contact with the cutting surface with each cutting motion. There are also santoku knives on the market that have dimples in the blade. These dimples serve a clear purpose: they prevent ingredients from sticking to the knife while you are cutting.
The santoku knife has several characteristic differences compared to the traditional European chef's knife. In the overview below, you can see which differences are most significant.
