Built for precise slicing, chopping, and everyday kitchen prep, the Microtech 4.2" Santoku Knife Stonewash/Coyote Tan G-10 with Titanium Bolsters delivers exceptional control in a compact, performance-driven package. Microtech’s attention to detail and commitment to premium materials are evident in every element of this versatile kitchen blade, making it a dependable tool for serious cooks who value both performance and craftsmanship.
The 4.2" Santoku blade is crafted from premium M390 stainless steel, a high-end steel celebrated for its outstanding edge retention, corrosion resistance, and long-term durability. This steel maintains a razor-sharp edge through repeated food prep while standing up to the moisture and acids commonly found in kitchen environments. The blade’s stonewashed finish reduces glare and helps conceal the minor scuffs that come with regular use, giving the knife a rugged working character without sacrificing its refined appearance. The Santoku profile excels at slicing vegetables, preparing proteins, and tackling detailed prep work with smooth, controlled cuts.
The handle is built for stability, comfort, and durability. Coyote Tan G-10 scales provide a secure grip and excellent resistance to moisture, temperature changes, and everyday wear. Known for its toughness, G-10 performs exceptionally well in demanding kitchen environments while maintaining a lightweight feel. Titanium bolsters reinforce the handle while adding balance and strength, creating a knife that feels solid and controlled in the hand during extended prep sessions. The earthy tan handle color paired with the stonewashed blade gives the knife a distinctive, rugged look that stands apart from traditional kitchen cutlery.
Measuring 8.82" overall and weighing 4.22 ounces, this Santoku strikes a perfect balance between maneuverability and cutting power. Its compact size allows for excellent control while still providing enough blade length for efficient chopping and slicing tasks. Each knife is proudly made in the USA, reflecting Microtech’s reputation for precision manufacturing and uncompromising quality.
