A safer and more effective all-purpose kitchen knife than the triangular European-style chef’s knife, the Japanese santoku is the ultimate kitchen tool for the home cook. Our exclusive Milk Street-designed santoku (which translates as “3 virtues”) features a 7-inch blade that is tall at the heel and retains a nearly continuous height to the tip thanks to the rounded sheepsfoot tip. That means there’s plenty of blade steel to protect your fingers when chopping, and it also works well for scooping up chopped vegetables to transfer to the skillet or mixing bowl.

The blade features a pronounced curve to the belly for easy rock chopping and mincing, while the pointed tip makes it all-purpose enough for prepping meats or mincing onions, garlic and shallots.

The comfortable “lock in” ergonomic handle, fashioned from durable matte-finished polymer, is broad at the top and narrows to the bottom for a palm-filling grip. It doesn’t twist or turn during heavy-duty use. The handle tapers towards the blade for a comfortable transition between handle and blade—a benefit that few knives take into account.

The heel of the bolsterless blade is scalloped, which makes the knife comfortable to choke up on for a controlled, confident pinch grip. And a patch of file pattern embossed into the blade adds even more grip between the thumb and pointer finger.

Just Right for Everyday Cooking:

Right-Sized

The midsized 7-inch blade is shorter than the average chef’s knife for better control.

Ultrathin and Razor Sharp

Half as thick s your average chef’s knife (only 1.5mm), the blade slices and dices with little effort.

Engineered for All-Purpose Use

The flat blade edge transitions into a pronounced arc toward the tip for a blade that slices as well as rock chops.

Safer Design

The rounded sheepsfoot tip allows detail work but is safer and more accurate than the pointy, piercing tip of a chef’s knife.

Testimonials

I FIND MYSELF REACHING FOR THE SANTOKU OVER AND OVER

"Its curved blade makes short work of finely mincing herbs, and it just fits perfectly in my hand. The handle just seems to rest naturally in the best position for cutting."

REBECCA R.

HOT KNIFE THROUGH BUTTER?

"Once again a quality product making meal prep chores a breeze. The Santoku glides through fruits and vegetables without smashing or crushing. I also believe a good knife is safer than a poorer quality because of the control. Good tools make the job easier producing a better result."

A safer, more effective all-purpose kitchen knife

Dicing an onion

The semi-pointed sheepsfoot tip and continuous blade height makes dicing onions easy.

Butchering meat

The Milk Street Santoku has just enough of a piercing tip to work well for cutting meats, like cubing beef or pork for stew.

Slicing a roast chicken or beef roast

The blade is long and thin enough for carving clean, slices form a roast chicken, beef tenderloin or even the holiday turkey.

Use It Like a Bench Scraper

The cleaver-like blade provides plenty surface area for transferring food from the cutting board.

Finely Chop

The fine tip and broad blade makes precision cuts on small items like shallots easy.
