Takayuki AS Santoku 165mm. This is a new line of knives we have started carrying from the industry giants Sakai Takayuki. Sakai Takayuki was established in 1946, and has since become one of the biggest manufacturers of Japanese knives in the world. Their products come from the origins of sword making in Sakai, Japan, the history of which stretches back nearly 600 years.

The AS Santoku is a fun and functional kitchen weapon capable of tackling almost every ingredient. Santoku knives are general-purpose chef knives in Japan, and they do a wide variety of tasks. This intriguing and somewhat cool-looking knife style has a nice flat spot which is ideal for push-cutting. It is a perfect tool for processing smaller items and performing intricate cuts.

The blade is constructed from Aogami Super high carbon steel which has been hammer forged with an outer layer of stainless steel. The cladding is given a hammer finish and the carbon forging scale has been kept to enhance the look and aid with food release. The great-looking blade is coupled to a maple octagonal handle.

      Great little knife , January 18, 2023

    I got this knife for my 20 year old daughter as she got a summer line cook job. I wanted to get her as close to a mini version as I could to my Takeda stainless clad AS chef knife. At first I was not overly impressed .. it was beautiful but performed ok. I subsequently took it to my Shapton whet stones and gave it a nice edge. Then a few weekends ago I was too lazy to get my large knife bag from the car and used this for a full meal prep. I find myself reaching for it all the time now.. it holds a great edge, nice tip for finer work and easy to maneuver as it is a small blade (at least for me. I am considering one for my knife bag now as I dont always need a 9 inch plus blade for every task .. did I mention how cool this knife looks? Great value for a stainless clad AS blade too
