The santoku is a knife of Japanese origin, used for chopping, chiseling and mincing (santoku literally means "three good things".) It's a must-have for precise, fine-cutting of all your foods.

The Gehring Looksantoku knife has an 11cm blade with a VG10 stainless steel core. This steel is one of the most renowned on the market, thanks to its high carbon content, which gives it strength and longevity. It contains 1% carbon, as opposed to the usual 0.5%. VG10 steel achieves a perfect balance between flexibility, sharpness and strength. Its hardness is around 60 HRC on the Rockwell scale. The blade of the santoku knife is damascened. It consists of 65 layers superimposed on the VG10 core. Damascus provides greater strength and flexibility, as well as an attractive, elegant visual appearance.

The knife handle is made of olive wood. This compact, solid wood is widely used for kitchen Utensils. Its unique, irregular grain adds an aesthetic and authentic touch to the knife. Two stainless steel rivets further solidify the handle.

As for care, the knife should be washed by hand and wiped dry immediately after use.
