SIGMAFORGE One-Piece Construction: Forged from a single piece of special formula high-carbon, no-stain stainless steel for exceptional strength, balance, and long-term durability in high-volume kitchen environments.
Ice-Hardened FRIODUR Blade: Proprietary ice-hardening process produces a blade that starts sharper, stays sharper longer, and delivers superior resilience and corrosion resistance against acidic foods.
Hollow Granton Edge: Scalloped indentations along the blade face create air pockets that prevent food from sticking during high-speed slicing, chopping, and dicing of proteins, fish, and vegetables.
Curved Ergonomic Bolster with Pinch Grip Support: Uniquely arched bolster acts as a natural extension of the hand, guiding the thumb and index finger into the professional pinch grip for enhanced precision, reduced fatigue, and safer cutting during extended use.
Hybrid Western/Asian Blade Geometry: Broad front curve enables the rocking motion preferred in Western technique, while the straight spine supports the downward chopping motion of Japanese-style cutting, making this santoku a true all-purpose workhorse.
Precision-Honed, Laser-Controlled Edge: Blade is precision-honed and finished to a laser-controlled angle, ensuring optimal sharpness geometry and consistent edge durability through repeated professional use.
Full Tang, Triple-Riveted ABS Handle: Full-length tang runs the entire length of the durable polymer handle and is secured with three rivets, providing superb balance, stability, and a secure grip even in wet kitchen conditions.
Sharpenable Bolster-to-Tip Edge: Unlike traditional bolster designs that block the heel, the curved bolster allows the full length of the blade to be sharpened from bolster to tip, extending the knife's service life.
