The Ittetsu Etsu Series 180mm Santoku delivers classic Santoku performance with refined Japanese craftsmanship. Forged in Sanjo City by a collective of master blacksmiths, this knife follows the proven OEM designs of Tadafusa, a cornerstone of Japanese cutlery since 1948.

A VG-10 core steel, heat treated to around 62 HRC, provides strong edge retention and dependable performance. The Sanmai construction is wrapped in 67-layer Damascus, paired with a hammered texture that enhances food release while giving the blade a striking, layered appearance.

Finished with an octagonal mahogany pakkawood wa-handle, the knife feels stable and controlled through slicing, dicing, and mincing. It’s a well-balanced Santoku built for cooks who want visual character backed by serious, everyday performance.
