Santoku knife 165 mm without bolsters from Masahiro´s NEO series.

Santoku knives have become very popular among chefs in recent years. The Santouku model is a knife for many uses, especially for working with vegetables. This explains why it has been popularly called the "vegetable knife".

The knife blade is made of Stainless Hi-Tech steel with exceptional sharpness durability (hardness 59-60 HRC). The core of the blade consists of powder steel and is laminated with stainless steel. The rounded handle is made of durable wood material.

The Neo knife was launched in 2000 and was a response to the so popular VG10 steel. According to creator Tojji Masahiro, it was perfect in terms of all the features that are important to a chef's knife.

The knife is only available as an 18cm chef's knife and 16.5cm Santuko (with and without bolsters). This is due to the design of the steel. Tests have been done on larger knives in the Neo series, but according to Tojji, the balance will be somewhat heavy. A detail that is extremely important to Masahiro, but something that most other knife brands unfortunately ignore nowadays. When consumption and growth are more important than balance and perfection.

The Neo knife has received many international awards and was named the first decade's best chef's knife by the magazine gourmet.
