The Microtech 4.2-inch Santoku Knife is built for cooks who demand precision without sacrificing strength. Compact, versatile, and purpose-driven, this Santoku bridges the gap between finesse and power, delivering confident performance across a wide range of kitchen tasks. From detailed prep work to steady, repetitive chopping, it’s engineered to perform with consistency and control.

At the heart of this knife is a 4.2-inch stonewash standard blade crafted from BÖHLER M390MK® steel. Renowned for exceptional edge retention and corrosion resistance, M390MK® holds a razor-sharp edge through demanding prep sessions. The thin yet sturdy blade geometry allows it to glide smoothly through meats, fish, and vegetables, producing clean, accurate cuts without tearing delicate ingredients. Whether you’re mincing herbs, dicing onions, or slicing proteins, this blade responds with precision and efficiency.

With an overall length of 8.82 inches, the knife offers a balanced and highly maneuverable profile. The compact blade length enhances control in tight workspaces while still providing enough cutting surface for substantial tasks. The stonewash finish adds a refined, work-focused character and helps minimize the appearance of light wear over time.

The black G-10 handle is paired with a titanium bolster, creating a durable and visually striking transition from blade to grip. G-10 provides excellent strength, moisture resistance, and long-term stability in demanding kitchen environments. The titanium bolster reinforces the knife’s structure while adding balance and a clean, modern aesthetic. At just 4.22 ounces, the knife feels solid yet agile, reducing fatigue during extended prep work.

Every detail reflects Microtech’s commitment to precision machining and premium materials. The ergonomics promote a secure, confident grip, allowing you to maintain control through intricate cuts and steady chopping motions. This Santoku isn’t oversized or flashy—it’s a focused tool designed to perform reliably day after day.

For chefs and serious home cooks alike, the Microtech 4.2-inch Santoku delivers the versatility to handle everyday prep while maintaining the sharpness and durability expected from high-performance steel.
