SCANPAN Knife Set 2-piece - Santoku Knife 12.5 cm & Santoku Knife 18 cm

You know the feeling: you grab a knife, place it on the onion... and push more than you cut. Not pleasant. Not handy. And certainly not what you want when you're enjoying cooking. With the SCANPAN Classic Knife Set 2-piece - a duo of a 12.5 cm santoku knife and an 18 cm santoku knife - you lay the foundation for a kitchen where cutting becomes a pleasure again. Forged German steel, a no-nonsense design, and a hardness of 56 HRC: these are knives that prove themselves with every meal.

Two knives, endless possibilities

A santoku knife is the Japanese answer to the classic chef's knife - and once you've worked with one, you won't want anything else. The wide blade, the slight curve, and the sharp cutting edge ensure that you process meat, fish, vegetables, and herbs with surprisingly little effort. SCANPAN gives you two sizes in one set: the small one for precision, the large one for the big jobs.

• Santoku Knife 12.5 cm - Perfect for fine cutting: chopping herbs, mincing garlic, slicing small vegetables thinly. This knife gives you control and precision.
• Santoku Knife 18 cm - Your go-to for larger tasks: filleting a chicken thigh, tackling half a pumpkin, or processing a large onion in no time.
• Forged German steel - Not pressed, thin steel but real forged material. That means better balance, longer edge retention, and a knife that you handle with care and lasts for years.
• Hardness 56 HRC - The ideal balance between sharpness and ease of maintenance. Hard enough to stay sharp for a long time, flexible enough to sharpen easily.
• Ergonomic plastic handle - The black handle feels comfortable in hand, even when you are cutting for a long time. No fatigue, no hassle - just nice working.
• Dishwasher safe - Yes, they can go in the dishwasher. Although for the longest lifespan it is best to choose hand washing, it is nice that you have that option.

Made for the modern kitchen

The SCANPAN Classic line is a bestseller for a reason. SCANPAN is a Danish brand with a reputation built by making products that just work - in the real kitchen, for real people. The Classic Knives series is the best example of this: sleek, functional, without frills. The silver stainless steel blade combines nicely with the matte black handle, so this set not only works well but also looks good in your kitchen drawer or on a magnetic knife rack.

The full tang - where the steel runs from the tip to the end of the handle - ensures optimal balance. You notice that immediately when you pick up the knife: it feels solid, not top-heavy and not too light. That is exactly how a good knife should feel.

From preparation to serving: this knife follows you

Imagine: it's Saturday night, you're preparing an elaborate meal for friends. You're slicing fresh ginger, chopping bell peppers, cutting a salmon fillet, and finely chopping a bunch of parsley. With the SCANPAN Classic set, you grab the right size for each part. The small knife for precise actions, the larger knife for quick, decisive cuts. Together they form a perfect duo that moves with your cooking style - whether you work methodically and calmly or quickly and intuitively.

And that satisfaction when everything flows in one smooth motion? That is what a good knife gives you. Not just convenience, but also pleasure. Enjoyment starts with the preparation.

Smart maintenance = long enjoyment

A good knife deserves a little attention, and then it gives you everything back. Cleaning by hand and drying after use is the best habit - that keeps the steel in top condition. Store the knives in a knife block or magnetic rack, so the cutting edge remains protected. Sharpen them regularly with a honing steel or whetstone, and these SCANPAN Classic knives will guide you year after year through all the culinary adventures that lie ahead.

💡 Tip from Cookinglife: Use a wooden or plastic cutting board instead of glass or stone. That protects the cutting edge of your knife and ensures that you need to sharpen them less often. A small habit, a big difference!
