Product Overview

A 165 mm santoku for everyday chopping and slicing, with a broad stainless-steel blade and a black three-rivet handle. Made in Japan, the Wakatake AB5420 is suitable for right- and left-handed cooks.

Choose the santoku for general preparation of vegetables, boneless meat and fish. The matching 180 mm gyuto offers a longer, pointed blade, while the 165 mm nakiri provides a rectangular blade dedicated to vegetables.

A broad blade for everyday preparation

The 165 mm cutting edge and broad santoku profile suit routine board work, from slicing vegetables to portioning boneless ingredients. At approximately 293 mm overall and 108 g, this is a lightweight knife for regular kitchen preparation.

Use the blade on a stable cutting board and choose a knife designed for the ingredient. The Wakatake gyuto adds reach for longer slices; the nakiri offers a straighter, rectangular vegetable-cutting profile.

Stainless steel and straightforward care

The single-layer stainless-steel blade is paired with a black polypropylene-and-nylon handle. Three visible rivets secure the grip. The handle materials are heat resistant to 110°C for polypropylene and 170°C for nylon; these are material ratings, not instructions to expose the knife to cooking heat.

The knife is suitable for a dishwasher or dish dryer. Remove food residue and moisture promptly after use, then dry thoroughly before storage. Stainless steel can still stain or rust if left dirty or wet. Keep the cutting edge protected and clear of other utensils when loading or storing it.
