Designed for balance and control, the EdgeCraft Series Santoku Knife is the ultimate tool for slicing, dicing, and mincing. Forged from 224 layers of Damascus steel, this knife blends Japanese-inspired versatility with BladeCraft’s signature craftsmanship.

  • 224-Layer Damascus
  • 56+ HRC Hardness
  • Full-Tang Build
  • Lifetime Guarantee

  • 224-Layer Damascus Steel Construction:
    Hand-forged from AISI 5160 and AISI 4340 steels, heat-treated to 1550°F, oil-quenched, and tempered for a Rockwell hardness of 56+ HRC, delivering superior edge retention and resilience.

  • Santoku Blade Profile:
    A wide blade with a gentle curve for efficient slicing, dicing, and mincing—perfect for vegetables, meats, and herbs.

  • Hammered Blade Finish:
    Reduces friction and minimizes food sticking for smoother, cleaner cuts.

  • Ergonomic Dark Wood Handle:
    Crafted for a secure, comfortable grip, featuring two metallic rivets and a decorative copper-like rivet for added elegance.

  • Full Tang Design:
    Ensures excellent balance, durability, and precise control from handle to blade tip.

  • Ideal For:
    Chopping, slicing, and mincing vegetables, meats, seafood, and herbs with precision.

Santoku means "three virtues": slicing, dicing and mincing. The SharpCraft santoku has the wide, flat-bellied blade and rounded tip that make a santoku the best choice for cooks who chop straight down rather than rock the knife, and the hammered finish along the spine stops slices of potato, courgette and cucumber clinging to the steel.

The blade is forged from 224 layers of Damascus steel around a high-carbon core, so it is hard enough to hold a keen edge and tough enough to shrug off daily use. A contoured dark hardwood handle with two polished rivets and a copper mosaic pin gives a secure, comfortable grip over the board.
