Kershaw Kai PRO Santoku – 7.0″ Japanese AUS6M Hammered Plain Blade Riveted POM Handle HT7064

The Kershaw Kai PRO Santoku (HT7064) is a professional-grade alternative to the traditional chef’s knife, offering the perfect balance of agility and power. Meaning “three virtues,” the Santoku excels at the three essential kitchen tasks: slicing, dicing, and mincing. Its shorter, 7-inch length and specialized blade geometry make it highly maneuverable, allowing for rapid, high-volume prep work with significantly less fatigue.

Forged from premium Japanese AUS6M stainless steel, the blade features a striking hammered finish that creates air pockets to reduce drag and prevent food from sticking to the steel. Each Kai PRO blade is hand-sharpened and finished to a razor-sharp 16° double-bevel edge, providing a level of precision that far exceeds standard Western cutlery. Built to withstand the rigorous demands of a commercial environment, the HT7064 features full-tang construction and a durable, moisture-resistant riveted POM handle. This NSF-certified Santoku is designed to deliver a lifetime of balanced, professional performance in both home and commercial kitchens.
