The Microtech Fixed Blade Santoku Knife delivers professional-grade cutting performance in a refined, purpose-built culinary design. Engineered for precision, control, and long-term durability, it brings Microtech’s renowned machining and material quality into a high-performance kitchen platform designed for serious prep work.
Its 6" blade is crafted from premium M390MK steel and finished in a stonewash treatment that enhances wear resistance while helping to mask the marks of daily use. The santoku profile is optimized for versatility, excelling at slicing, dicing, and mincing with smooth, controlled motion. The wide blade geometry supports efficient food transfer from cutting board to pan, while the edge design maintains excellent sharpness and cutting stability through repeated use in demanding kitchen environments.
Full tang construction runs the entire length of the knife, reinforcing strength and improving balance for confident handling. This solid foundation ensures consistent control during repetitive cutting tasks, giving the user stability and precision with every motion.
The handle features Coyote Tan G-10 scales paired with titanium bolsters, creating a rugged yet refined aesthetic with serious functional durability. The G-10 provides a secure, moisture-resistant grip that performs reliably in fast-paced or wet kitchen conditions, while the titanium bolsters add structural reinforcement and a premium finishing touch. Ergonomic shaping supports comfort during extended use, helping reduce fatigue while maintaining accurate blade control.
At 11.52" overall and weighing 8.27 ounces, the knife offers a balanced, substantial feel that reflects its professional-grade construction. Every detail is designed with performance, durability, and long-term reliability in mind.
