Makoto Kurosaki VG10 Nashiji Santoku 165mm
Makoto Kurosaki VG10 Nashiji Santoku 165mm
About the Shape - This is also a multi-purpose knife, but with a slight vegetable bias. Santoku means 'Three Virtues' or 'To solve Three Problems'. The virtues or problems are slicing, dicing and mincing. Santoku is usually found in 160mm - 190mm lengths. These are more and more popular in Western kitchens due to the unique shape and smaller easy to handle size.

Kurosaki-san is an expert sharpener and a knife “designer” of sorts.
