Satake Satoru Tsuchime Santoku Japanese Knife - 17 cm - Versatile Kitchen Master

The Satake Satoru Tsuchime Santoku Japanese kitchen knife is a true all-rounder in the kitchen, a perfect choice for chopping vegetables and slicing meat and fish. The characteristic curved tip makes chopping with a rocking motion easier, while the wide blade provides practical help for conveniently gathering and moving chopped ingredients.

The Tsuchime Hammered and Polished Surface

The knife's special "tsuchime" (hammered) pattern on the blade is not only aesthetic but also highly functional. These small depressions create air pockets between the knife and the food, which prevents slices from sticking to the blade. This makes cutting easier and more efficient. This surface is complemented by the polishing of the entire blade, which not only provides a clean, elegant look but also ensures maximum sharpness and a perfect cutting experience.

Tradition and Modern Technology

The origin of the santoku (三徳) knife dates back to Japan's Showa era (1926-1989) as a response to the needs of Western cuisine. The Satake Satoru Tsuchime Santoku is the perfect fusion of tradition and modernity. The blade is produced with machine precision, which guarantees reliable quality and precise fittings. To conclude the manufacturing process, each knife is manually inspected to meet strict quality requirements. The name "santoku" refers to the knife's three main uses: slicing, dicing, and chopping, which is why it is often called the "knife of three virtues."
