The Victorinox Santoku Knife with Rosewood handle brings together timeless elegance and contemporary performance in one finely crafted kitchen essential. Designed to handle everything from delicate herbs to hearty root vegetables, this all-purpose blade combines Japanese influence with Swiss engineering for exceptional cutting precision. Made in Switzerland by Victorinox, Makers of the Original Swiss Army Knife, it delivers performance that chefs trust and style that elevates any kitchen.
This Santoku features a 7” blade made from Victorinox’s proprietary stainless steel, known for its excellent edge retention, corrosion resistance, and ultra-sharp cutting power. Precision-honed to a fine edge, the blade makes clean, consistent cuts whether you’re slicing, dicing, or chopping. The signature Santoku profile—with its flat edge and gently curved spine—makes it ideal for straight-down cuts and rapid, repetitive motion on the cutting board.
The Granton edge is where this knife really shines. Shallow scallops along both sides of the blade create small air pockets between the steel and whatever you’re cutting, helping to reduce friction and prevent food from sticking. That means faster prep time, cleaner cuts, and fewer interruptions—especially handy when you're working with starchy vegetables, cheeses, or proteins. It’s an edge design that gives both speed and precision to every cut.
At 11.5” overall and weighing 9.5 ounces, this knife offers a comfortable, grounded feel in hand. The hidden tang provides balance and strength without interrupting the smooth silhouette of the handle. It’s a knife that feels like an extension of your hand, responding intuitively to every motion whether you’re finely mincing garlic or slicing through thick cuts of meat.
The rosewood handle adds warmth and refinement that sets this knife apart. Smooth, contoured, and beautifully grained, the rosewood handle is both a pleasure to hold and a statement of craftsmanship. It offers a natural, secure grip and ages beautifully with care. The subtle curve of the handle fits comfortably in the palm, reducing fatigue and providing excellent control throughout long prep sessions.
This Santoku knife isn’t just a tool—it’s a combination of form, function, and heritage. Victorinox’s decades of knife-making expertise are evident in every detail, from the blade’s geometry to the seamless transition between handle and tang. It’s the kind of knife that transforms routine chopping into a more satisfying, efficient experience.
