Discover the blend of traditional Japanese craftsmanship and modern functionality with the Tokushu Knife Tsuchime SLD 165mm Santoku. This versatile knife, crafted with SLD semi-stainless steel, provides excellent edge retention akin to carbon steel but with much easier maintenance.

Originally developed by Hitachi for durability, SLD steel is perfect for everyday kitchen use. The semi-stainless cladding minimizes maintenance—just wipe it dry before storage. For optimal sharpness, consider our professional sharpening service to ensure your Santoku is ready for action right out of the box.

Each knife is fitted with a high-quality octagonal Walnut Wa handle, handcrafted by skilled artisans in Sanjo, Japan.
