Copper Damascus Santoku (Apex Ultra - S-Grind)

Hand-forged copper Damascus Santoku with S-grind.

The Santoku shape, traditionally rooted in Japanese cuisine, is ideal for finely slicing vegetables, fish, and meat. The characteristic S-grind —a specially ground groove on the blade side—reduces friction and prevents food from sticking. This allows the blade to glide effortlessly through any type of food—precisely, cleanly, and efficiently.
