This Zanmai Santoku features a slim spine and an elegantly thin grind, offering that crisp, laser-like performance typical of Zanmai’s best work. The monosteel VG10 blade delivers a clean, minimal aesthetic with excellent edge retention and corrosion resistance.
Its hexagonal pakkawood handle, paired with a nickel silver kuchiwa, reflects Zanmai’s refined approach to production — a blend of Seki’s long-standing knife-making tradition and modern innovation. The brand’s meticulous fit and finish are evident throughout, from the mother-of-pearl inlay to the polished spine and choil, showcasing the precision and care that define every Zanmai knife.
