Microtech Santoku 4" Black Cherry G10 M390MK Stonewash Kitchen Knife (4.20" Blade) 3300-10 BC

This Black Cherry G10 build of the Microtech Santoku 4" is a compact kitchen knife on flat-ground M390MK stainless. The santoku profile runs thin behind the edge for fine vegetable work, dense produce and trimming proteins.

• Stonewashed M390MK Blade - M390MK holds an edge far longer than typical kitchen stainless and shrugs off the acid in tomatoes and citrus. It does fight back on the stones. Keep a diamond plate on hand for touch-ups. The stonewash finish hides the small scuffs of daily prep.
• Full Flat Grind - The bevel runs unbroken from spine to edge. Dense carrots and winter squash fall away cleanly instead of cracking ahead of the blade, and onions come off in sheets you can read through. There is almost nothing here to wedge or stick.
• Black Cherry G10 Handle - Milled G10 in a deep wine red keeps its grip when your hands are wet from rinsing produce. The shape fills the palm and stays comfortable through a full board of prep. G10 will not swell, crack, or absorb odors the way a wood handle can.
• Pinch-Grip Balance - Choke up with thumb and forefinger on the blade and the knife settles right at that point. Nothing tips forward or drags back. Rocking through a pile of herbs asks almost nothing of your wrist.

The Microtech Santoku

The Microtech Santoku takes the machining Microtech built its tactical reputation on and points it at the cutting board. The Santoku is the kitchen all-rounder, compact and shaped for chopping, dicing, and mincing. Across the Microtech Kitchen Line, that translates to a flat, knuckle-clearing edge and a grippy composite handle, finished to the standard the brand puts into its folders and automatics.
