Name of Santoku

三徳包丁

Santoku literally means “three virtues” — slicing, dicing, and mincing. It became the modern multipurpose kitchen blade, uniting the roles of specialist knives into one balanced form. With a broad profile for clean chopping and easy transfer, it delivers fast, predictable performance across daily prep with calm control.

Maintenance and Care

Hand-wash and dry immediately; never dishwasher or soaking. Use wood or soft-plastic boards; avoid bone and frozen foods; don’t pry or twist. Hone lightly as needed; sharpen at ~15° per side; store sheathed or on a protected magnetic strip.

Lifetime Guarantee

Every Hanzō blade is built to perform for life, no compromises. If it ever fails due to craftsmanship or materials, we’ll repair it or replace it, at no cost.
