The Benifuji Santoku Granton 16.5cm Knife is a Japanese all-purpose kitchen knife.

Like a chefs knife, the santoku is used for just about every cutting job in the kitchen. It works well with vegetables, proteins, and fruit and excels at three types of cuts; slicing, dicing, and chopping. Hollow-ground indentations on the blade help reduce friction so the blade glides through the food more easily.

Kai Benifuji is part of the Seki Magoroku range of knives. Many celebrated swords were born in the Seki area and in the Kamakura era. The master craftsman “Magoroku of Seki” had the original technique of producing beautiful swords which were high quality and had outstanding sharpness. Made in Japan, these knives have a full tang which makes them robust and eases hand fatigue. Like others in the Kai family, the handle is made from hard-wearing PakkaWood which enables durability and comfort, as well as making it an attractive looking knife to have in your collection.

Constructed from AUS-8A stainless steel, each blade is subjected to a 3 chamfering processes. This special grinding process reduces the friction against food and blade and gives you a knife with an extremely sharp cutting edge.

  • Blade Material: Full tang, Japanese AUS-8A blade steel
  • Cutting Angle: Double bevelled 16° cutting angle on each side.
  • Hardness: 60 HRC.
  • Handle Material: PakkaWood (premium, resin-impregnated hardwood)
  • Blade length: 16.5cm
  • Handcrafted in Japan
  • Shun knives are provided with a limited warranty from manufacturing defects.

One aspect of caring for your knives is maintaining the edge and, when needed, sharpening the blade. However, it is also important to be aware of how you are using your knives on a daily basis.
