Kyoto Molybdenum Stainless Santoku 160 mm

Kyoto All-Stainless Santoku 160mm

Seamless one-piece santoku knife crafted in Kyoto from molybdenum-alloyed cutlery stainless steel.
Hygienic, balanced, and built for everyday cooking — from vegetables to meat and fish.

The satin-finished blade glides cleanly through ingredients, while its subtle food-release texture keeps your prep smooth and efficient.

Performance

Molybdenum-alloyed stainless steel: Sharp, durable, and resistant to corrosion and chipping.
Convex (hamaguri) double-bevel edge: Smooth entry, straight tracking, and precise control.
Food-release finish: Prevents sticking when slicing high-starch ingredients like potatoes and daikon.
One-piece stainless construction: Hygienic, lightweight, and easy to clean.

Craftsmanship

Made in Kyoto, Japan — where nearly 300 years of craftsmanship meet modern sensibility.
Each process, from steel selection to grinding and final hand-finishing, is carefully supervised by skilled specialists.
The embossed stainless handle provides a secure grip, even in wet conditions, and reduces fatigue during long prep sessions.

Use & Care

• Handwash in warm water and towel dry
• Do not cut frozen foods
• Use a sharpening stone, not a honing steel, to re-sharpen your Japanese knives
• Avoid pull-through or roller-type sharpeners, which may change the original edge angle and reduce sharpness over time
