Color | Santoku | 170 mm | Black

Tojiro Color santoku, 170 mm, black, with a MoVa stainless steel blade and an elastomer handle, 125 g.

The black santoku from the Tojiro Color series has a molybdenum-vanadium (MoVa) stainless steel blade: this type of steel is extremely durable and wear-resistant, and with regular sharpening it keeps its working performance for decades. The knife with its 17 cm blade weighs only 125 g, so at 30.5 cm overall length it can be handled without fatigue even during long cooking sessions.

The black elastomer resin handle provides a non-slip grip even with wet hands and follows the contours of the hand well. The members of the Color series, with their different handle colours, are easy to tell apart in the kitchen, so they can also be used for colour-coded task allocation.
