Product Overview

The AE5141 Azuchi is a 165 mm santoku with a silver carbon-steel blade and a black plastic handle secured by three visible rivets. A dark transition at the handle and the two-tone blade surface give this knife a different appearance from an all-stainless Shoso model.

The broad santoku outline is distinct from the longer AE5143 gyuto in the same Azuchi range. Compare the specified blade material and blade length as well as the handle style when choosing between these preparation knives.

Compare blade material as well as appearance

Several santokus share a silver blade and black handle, but that appearance does not identify the steel. The AE5141 uses carbon steel; compare it with the stainless-steel Wakatake and Shoso alternatives using the specification table.

Carbon-steel blade

The blade material is carbon steel, paired with a separate plastic handle.

Three-rivet handle

Three bright rivets contrast with the black handle.

165 mm santoku format

A broad blade with a descending spine defines the santoku shape.
