The Global Classic 18cm Santoku Knife, Fluted G-80 is a broad-bladed Asian-profile knife for controlled push cuts, fine slicing and efficient vegetable preparation, with recesses that help damp food release from the blade.

Key Features

  • 18 cm blade sized for vegetables, boneless proteins and fine slicing
  • Hollow-edge / fluted blade
  • Seamless all-stainless-steel construction with a hollow, precisely balanced handle
  • CROMOVA 18 stainless steel hardened to 56–58 HRC
  • Signature dimpled stainless-steel handle
  • Made in Niigata, Japan

Why Choose This Product

Choose this for precise, controlled board work and a flatter cutting action than a traditional Western chef's knife. The hollow edge is particularly useful with moist slices such as potato, cucumber and courgette. The medium format balances quick control with enough blade face for efficient vegetable work. Within the Classic range, this model stands out for the unmistakable Global design: light, agile and hygienic, with no handle joints and a crisp Japanese-style edge.
Simply Hospitality Notes

This profile rewards controlled push cuts and a stable knife-friendly board. Avoid bones, frozen food and twisting cuts; the fine edge is designed for precision rather than impact.

Product Guide

Use a forward-and-down push cut and lift the blade cleanly between strokes. The broad face is useful for transferring prepared ingredients, but use the spine—not the edge—to move food across the board.

Product Details

The broad face gives useful knuckle clearance and can help transfer prepared ingredients, while the flatter edge profile rewards a controlled forward-and-down cutting action.
