Seki Kanetsugu ZUINN SG2 Damascus 180mm Kiritsuke Santoku Knife
Seki Kanetsugu have been producing quality knives since 1849 so they know a thing or two about a good knife. The ranges we offer are carefully selected to offer amazing value for money, solid performance and a traditional Japanese style.
These are made from SG2 steel, the pinacle of stainless performance. They are hard, sharp, beautiful and very well finished. Not only that but they a really cool handle with an angled bottom.
Similar to a Gyuto chef’s knife, the Santoku offers a large light blade with a taller profile and a flatter belly, making the knife excellent for a more ‘up and down’ chopping motion for meat, fish or vegetables. Blades vary from 160mm to 180mm. This is a great knife if you want an all rounder with shorter blade and a good weight to it.
