The Microtech Signature Series 4.2" Santoku Knife combines precision cutting performance with premium materials and unmistakable Microtech styling. Built for cooks who demand control and efficiency, this versatile kitchen knife is equally at home chopping vegetables, dicing ingredients, mincing herbs, and preparing meat or fish.
Its 4.2" blade is crafted from Microtech’s proprietary Böhler M390MK premium steel and protected by a DLC (diamond-like carbon) coating. The tough, low-profile finish adds a sleek appearance while providing excellent resistance to wear and corrosion. The thin, sturdy Santoku blade moves smoothly through ingredients, delivering clean, controlled cuts whether you’re handling everyday prep or more intricate culinary tasks.
Microtech developed M390MK in collaboration with engineers at Böhler to improve edge retention and corrosion resistance over the already-popular M390 steel. That premium steel gives this compact Santoku the edge performance and durability expected from a knife built to see plenty of kitchen duty.
The handle pairs distinctive wire carbon fiber with titanium bolsters, creating a sophisticated combination of lightweight strength, durability, and refined aesthetics. The result is a Santoku that balances power and finesse in a compact, highly maneuverable package. Whether you’re slicing fish, chopping vegetables, or mincing ingredients, its nimble profile gives you the precision needed for controlled kitchen work.
