Santoku Knife 18 cm
Versatile santoku knife engineered for precise, effortless cutting
A versatile workhorse designed to streamline prep work, this santoku knife is an indispensable tool for professional kitchens and passionate home cooks alike. Designed to master meat, fish and vegetables with equal precision, it turns demanding daily slicing and dicing into a seamless task.
NITRUM® steel blade with non-stick granton edge
Forged from nitrogen-enriched stainless steel, the 180 mm NITRUM® blade provides exceptional cutting performance, lasting sharpness and superior resistance to wear. The granton hollows along the blade face create air pockets that prevent food slices from sticking, ensuring faster, smoother prep work.
Ergonomic rosewood handle for balanced control
Designed for comfortable handling across long prep sessions, the natural rosewood handle combines an ergonomic profile with a warm, natural feel. Three corrosion-resistant stainless steel rivets secure the handle firmly to the forged tang, reflecting the cutlery craftsmanship Arcos has refined since 1734.
Mastering the three virtues of Japanese cutlery—meat, fish and vegetables—the broad blade profile maintains clean board contact and lets you scoop chopped ingredients with ease. Its balanced weight distribution delivers controlled, fatigue-free cutting from the first cut to the last.
