This Santoku knife from Hitohira’s Futana line features an all-purpose blade ideal for slicing, chopping, and dicing with precision. Forged from S3 (Ginsan) stainless steel, the blade offers excellent sharpness, edge retention, and natural corrosion resistance — a dependable choice for everyday cooking.
Its visual appeal is enhanced by a Damascus pattern and a traditional tsuchime (hammered) finish, which is both decorative and practical: it reduces food adhesion for smoother cuts. Every detail reflects the precision of Japanese craftsmanship, designed for control and ease of use.
The walnut wood handle, carefully shaped, provides a stable and balanced grip — suitable for passionate home cooks and demanding professionals alike. Elegant, efficient, and low-maintenance, this knife embodies the high standards behind Hitohira’s curated selection.
