With characteristics of an Asian cleaver and a western chef's knife, the Santoku Kitchen Knife from Spyderco is a versatile tool that makes meal prep a pleasure. It was Spyderco that first introduced the santoku style to the U.S. market in the 1980s. This new version has a 6.8" blade of MBS-26 stainless steel, with an extra-thin full-flat grind and special heat treatment that helps the blade hold its edge. A textured handle of black polypropylene provides comfortable control of this venerable Japanese design.
