The Santoku is a general-purpose kitchen knife similar to the chef knife. The blade of the Santoku is not as curved as a chef’s knife, resulting in more of a chopping motion instead of a rocking motion. It performs extremely well at slicing, dicing, and mincing. This version of the Santoku has a 7" blade.
A Kullenschliff (K) edge, also known as a Granton- or Hollow-Edge, is designed to create an air pocket between the food and the blade, helping to prevent sticking.

These masterful cutting instruments are yours to be treasured and passed to the next generation.
We are 100% confident that you will never find a better Forged Knife anywhere.
Features
• Made from the very best German Steel, our full-tang Premier Forged blades are polished and sharpened in our Massachusetts facilities. Handles of exotic imported hardwoods and acrylics are assembled to the blades with triple rivets and then the knives are processed and sharpened to perfection.
• Signature Craftsmanship. Meticulously formed in our Massachusetts facilities, each of our knives is finished to perfection using state-of-the-art technology coupled with hand finishing as well as proprietary polishing and sharpening processes.
• Unmatched Blade Quality. Blades are precision-forged from the finest high-carbon Grade 4116 stainless steel from Solingen, Germany, using the traditional hot-drop method. Blades are then tempered and ice-hardened to a perfect 58 on the Rockwell Hardness Scale. This results in a hard, wickedly sharp blade that retains an edge for longer and is both highly corrosion-resistant and elastic.
• Superior Handling & Cutting Performance. Full tang blades with smooth integrated front bolster and triple-riveted handles ensure ideal strength, balance and weight. Our combination machine and hand-sharpening processes ensure a consistently ultra-sharp and durable edge.
• Lifetime Warranty. Every Lamson product comes with a Lifetime Warranty against manufacturing defects
• Guaranteed reliability. Our Sharp for Life™ program supplies a lifetime of complimentary professional sharpening on every knife we make.
• Lamson knives are not dishwasher safe.
Care & Sharpening
• Hone blade edges regularly with a honing steel.
• If your Lamson blade edge remains dull even after honing or using a sharpener, please have the blade professionally sharpened or send it back to Lamson for Free Sharpening with our Sharp-For-Life program.
• Hand-wash all Knives and Tools with warm soapy water. The dishwasher is NEVER recommended.
• Dry immediately with a soft, clean cloth.
