Classic Ikon Santoku 7”

This Japanese-style santoku is deftly proportioned to do the work of a chef's knife and a cleaver, making it ideal for precision tasks like mincing and paper-thin slicing. Shallow depressions in the blade create air pockets that keep foods from sticking, and its durable polypropylene handle is designed for comfort.

Triple-riveted to the handle, the hand-honed, full-tang blade is forged from high-carbon steel and ground from handle to tip and from spine to edge for optimal sharpness. The recessed bolster allows you to sharpen the entire length of the cutting edge. Always use caution when handling sharp objects.
