Santoku is a cross between a chef's knife (gyuto) and a chopping knife (nakiri). The tip of the blade, which is directed down from the center of the knife, makes it possible to find a more stable support and a larger cutting surface on the working surface. Well suited for cutting and shredding meat, fish, root and fruit. Santoku is a very popular common knife in Japanese homes. Thanks to the wider blade, it is very convenient to lift chopped food from the cutting board to the pot with the help of santoku.

Handmade is the most affordable series from the quality manufacturer Misono, which in terms of assembly quality is comparable to top models. The blade of the knife is single-layer molybdenum-vanadium steel (HRC 58) and the material for the handle is stabilized wood. The classic and tried and tested design and first-class finishing level leave no room for doubt - it is an excellent Japanese chef's knife, where there is no compromise at the expense of quality or sharpness.

The Misono Handmade is perfect for both home use and for a professional chef's first acquaintance with Japanese cooking knives, because it is a knife with excellent assembly quality and finish in its price range.
