Suncraft MOKA Damascus Santoku
Envisioned by noted Japanese designer Motomi Kawakami, this 7-inch santoku knife is one of the sleekest, most elegant blades we’ve come across, as well as one of the most useful. The ultratough, cobalt-infused stainless VG-10 steel is the Japanese benchmark for kitchen knives; it delivers wear resistance and a long-lasting edge. And the Damascus pattern is more than just good looks: the 69 layers of ultrathin steel create a particularly hard, lively steel—there’s a reason swords used to be made from it. The blade geometry arcs strongly toward the fine tip, making it excellent for slicing as well as mincing and rock chopping. It’s also tall enough for scooping up chopped foods to transfer to the pot or mixing bowl. The midsized sculpted stainless steel handle is surprisingly comfortable in the hand—broader at the top and subtly narrower at the bottom for a secure grip. At 150 grams, or about 5 ounces, this is one of the heaviest full-sized knives we’ve ever used, but one of the nimblest in the hand.
