Precision santoku knife for vegetables and meats. The Zyliss Santoku Knife 18cm (7") is a versatile all-purpose kitchen knife ideal for chopping vegetables, slicing meats, and mincing herbs.

Made from ice-hardened German stainless steel with a precision 15° taper-ground edge, it delivers clean, controlled cuts. Full tang construction ensures the steel runs through the handle for enhanced balance, strength, and long-term durability. The ergonomic handle contains up to 10% wheat straw material, reducing virgin plastic use without compromising grip or performance. Dishwasher safe and backed by a 10-year Zyliss guarantee.
