Cuisine::pro® Damashiro EMPEROR® Santoku Knife

Inspired by the role of the santoku as an everyday essential in Japanese kitchens, this knife is designed to handle a wide range of prep tasks with confidence. Its blade profile supports the pull-and-push cutting motion favored for vegetables, herbs, fish and boneless proteins, helping create clean, controlled cuts throughout meal preparation.

Thoughtful details such as the hammered blade finish and dark walnut pakkawood handle bring together function and refined design. Whether you’re preparing ingredients for a quick weeknight meal or a more involved recipe, this knife offers the balance and precision needed for daily use.
