The NAGOMI Santoku Knife 180mm is crafted by Mitsuboshi Cutlery in Seki City, Gifu Prefecture, blending centuries-old swordmaking tradition with modern materials and precision. The broad 440A molybdenum steel blade is heat-treated, tempered, and hand-honed to deliver a durable, razor-sharp edge that withstands everyday kitchen use. The blade is slightly smaller than that of a typical Gyuto, making the knife a perfect multipurpose tool for home cooking and especially well suited for cutting meat. The handle is carefully balanced with the blade and reinforced for strength, providing a comfortable, secure grip for extended prep work and smooth, controlled cuts for both home cooks and professional chefs.
About the Blade Shape: Often described as the Japanese version of the Western-style chef’s knife, double-edged Gyuto knives are designed for a wide range of kitchen tasks with a slight emphasis on protein preparation. The balanced blade shape supports slicing, chopping, and push cuts with ease, making it ideal for both professional and home cooks. Typically measuring between 210mm and 240mm, the double-bevel gyuto offers adaptability, precision, and everyday reliability.
