Shikoku 7" Damascus Steel Kengata Santoku 三徳包丁
The Shikoku 7" Damascus Steel Kengata Santoku unites striking Japanese design with exceptional modern performance, crafted for chefs and home cooks who demand both beauty and precision.
67-Layer AUS10 Damascus Steel
At its core is premium AUS10 steel, clad in 67 layers of Damascus for superb hardness, edge retention and unique visual character. The intricate wave pattern is revealed in every layer, creating a blade that is as captivating as it is razor-sharp. Honed to a precise 8–12° cutting angle, it delivers effortless, scalpel-like precision through vegetables, meats and fish.
Rosewood Handle
The handle is shaped from richly grained rosewood, offering natural warmth and enduring strength. Its elegant contours and perfect balance provide a secure, comfortable grip, ensuring confident control during both delicate slicing and heavy chopping.
Kengata Blade Profile
The distinct Kengata (sword-tip) profile combines the versatility of a Santoku with the pointed precision of a Gyuto. This hybrid design makes it ideal for fine slicing, controlled rocking cuts and intricate knife work.

Sold OutGot this to replace my old block set santoku. The difference is night and day. The flat profile is perfect for chopping, and the edge is just scary sharp. For the price, I'm blown away.
Bought this for my dad who loves to cook. He called me the next day raving about it. Said the handle feels great and the blade just glides through tomatoes. He's super happy with it.
Used it to slice some smoked salmon and it was like butter. The thin blade geometry is excellent. Handle feels secure. Very nice knife overall.
So I was a little skeptical ordering a knife from china but wow. It came in a nice sturdy box, blade was protected. The knife itself is beautiful and cuts like a dream. No regrets.
Really nice knife overall. The damascus steel looks even better in person and it's super sharp right out of the box. My only thing is the handle shape is a little different than what I'm used to, it's a bit more oval. Took me a few days of using it to get comfortable but now it's fine. Definitely a massive upgrade from the cheap santoku I had before.
It's a decent knife. Does the job. The pattern is pretty and it was sharp when it arrived. I guess I was expecting to be more wowed for the price? It feels a bit lighter than I prefer, makes it feel less substantial. It's good, not great. I'll keep using it but I'm not blown away or anything.
