The surface finish is done at Kaneshige HQ, giving the knife a mirror-like luster while showcasing contrast.

Santoku is an all-purpose blade that is incredibly useful for tight spaces and it is the one that most home cooks should purchase first. Even folks who use paring knives for everything can quickly get used to this blade since it brings so much utility in a compact size.
