The Tsunehisa Morado Santoku knife is a highly versatile Japanese knife with a 165-mm blade length. It is perfect for cutting and chopping various products, from meat to fruit and vegetables. Santoku knives have dominated Japanese home kitchens in recent years.

The Tsunehisa Morado series of professional knives is made from high-quality carbon steel called Aogami Super. This collection's knives are of the highest quality and durability, ensuring excellent performance. Their cutting power and ability to maintain a high level of sharpness are additional advantages. The Aogami Super steel core is clad with stainless steel, ensuring unparalleled effectiveness in kitchen work and effortless maintenance. Heat treatment increases each blade's hardness to a level of 63 +/- 1 HRC. The traditional Kurouchi finish is worth noting. The black part on the upper side of the blade protects it and emphasizes the classic Japanese style. The knives from the Tsunehisa Morado collection are unique because they are hand-forged. This process gives the blades a distinctive finish and prevents food from sticking. Rosewood – Morado – is the wood of choice for the oval handle, which features a pakka wood ferrule.
