SHOP CASE KNIVESSerious kitchen prep calls for a blade that’s precise, durable, and ready to work, and the Microtech 6" Santoku Knife Stonewash/Ember G-10 with Titanium Bolsters delivers exactly that. Built with Microtech’s renowned attention to detail, this Santoku combines premium materials with a balanced, versatile design that handles everything from vegetable prep to slicing proteins with smooth efficiency.
The 6" Santoku blade is crafted from premium M390 stainless steel, a high-end steel known for exceptional edge retention, corrosion resistance, and overall durability. This advanced steel holds a razor-sharp edge through extended use while standing up to the moisture and acidity common in kitchen environments. The stonewashed finish reduces glare and helps conceal the small marks that come with regular use, giving the blade a rugged, hardworking appearance without sacrificing its refined look. The Santoku profile is ideal for slicing, chopping, and dicing, offering smooth, controlled cuts across a wide range of ingredients.
The handle is built for comfort and dependable grip during extended prep sessions. Ember G-10 scales bring a bold orange color while delivering excellent strength and stability in hand. G-10 is widely respected for its resistance to moisture, temperature changes, and heavy use, making it an ideal material for demanding kitchen tools. Titanium bolsters reinforce the handle and add balance to the overall construction, giving the knife a solid, confident feel during cutting tasks. The combination of vibrant Ember G-10 and titanium accents creates a distinctive, modern look that stands out in any kitchen.
Measuring 11.52" overall and weighing 8.27 ounces, this Santoku offers a comfortable balance of blade length and control. The added reach of the 6" blade provides more cutting surface while maintaining the maneuverability Santoku knives are known for. Each knife is proudly made in the USA and reflects Microtech’s dedication to precision manufacturing and premium craftsmanship.
