Santoku knife with hollow-ground blades – 18 cm

Japanese-style kitchen knife, "Santoku" model, with dual-injection polypropylene and rubber handle, stainless steel blade with granton edges (hollows).
Available only with a blue handle.

A classic Japanese kitchen knife.
The word "SANTOKU" means "three virtues" in Japanese, reflecting its versatility for cutting meat, fish, and vegetables.
Its shorter blade and straighter edge—compared to a traditional Western chef’s knife—make it exceptionally versatile and easy to handle, especially for fine chopping.
In this version, the blade features hollows (granton edges) that act as an anti-stick system, creating air pockets between the food and the blade for cleaner, smoother cuts.

Knives from the Imperiale line are crafted from high-quality molybdenum-vanadium X50-Cr-Mo-Va 15 steel, ensuring precise and long-lasting cutting performance.
The polypropylene and rubber handles feature an ergonomic grip that provides a secure and reliable hold, even with larger knife models.
An integrated germicidal "Alphasan" additive in the handles ensures hygiene and cleanliness by preventing the growth of bacteria and fungi.
