KAI Seki Magoroku Shoso All-Stainless Santoku Knife 165 mm

$32.00

Brand	KAI
Type	All-stainless santoku knife AB5156
Dimensions	Overall about 299 mm, blade about 165 mm
Weight	About 135 g
Material	Molybdenum-vanadium stainless steel, one-piece blade and handle
Made In	Japan
Key Features	No seam, three-step edge finish, dishwasher compatible

A seamless body that stays hygienic
We form the blade and handle as one piece of stainless steel, so there is no gap where dirt, water or mould can collect. A rinse and a wipe leave it clean, and hot-water sterilisation is possible whenever you want extra confidence.
An edge that glides through food
Our three-step edge finish polishes the tiny corner left after sharpening. That lowers cutting resistance, so the blade slides into vegetables and meat with little force, and one review says it cuts without sawing.
A grip that stays secure in your hand
We hammer a pattern into a streamlined handle, a registered design, so your fingers find a hold and the knife does not slip. One review says the handle dries easily and does not slip, which keeps you in control.
Easy care in the dishwasher every day
The all-stainless build is compatible with dishwashers and dish dryers. Remove dirt and water soon after use and dry the knife, because water left on stainless steel can still cause rust or discoloration if it is neglected.
A light and handy size for daily use
Our santoku measures about 299 mm overall with a 165 mm blade and weighs about 135 g. It is light enough for daily use and large enough for meat, fish and vegetables, and it suits right- and left-handed cooks.
More than 110 years of Seki craft
We began in 1908 in Seki City, Gifu, a town famous for blades, and the Seki Magoroku name carries the pride of its sword-smiths. More than 110 years of blade-making stand behind this knife.

Who Is This For

The Clean-Kitchen Home Cook: You want a knife that is easy to keep clean. Wooden handles hide dirt and mould in their gaps, and a dull blade makes every cut a struggle, which is a flaw in the tool, not in you. Our Shoso santoku is one piece of molybdenum-vanadium stainless steel with no seam, a three-step edge finish and a hammered streamlined grip. It is compatible with dishwashers, dish dryers and hot-water sterilisation, so you can cook, clean up fast and keep one sharp, hygienic knife for every day.

Product Story

We began in 1908 in Seki City, Gifu Prefecture, making pocket knives in a town known for blades. Over more than 110 years we grew into a maker of kitchen knives, razors and beauty tools, with about 10,000 items today. Our Seki Magoroku Shoso line answers the wish for an easy-care knife that keeps cutting well. We form blade and handle as one stainless piece, polish the edge in three steps and make it in Japan.

Quick Answer

Our Shoso santoku is a one-piece stainless knife with no seam, a three-step edge finish and a hammered grip, weighing about 135 g. It is dishwasher compatible, suits left- and right-handed cooks and is made in Japan by a maker founded in 1908.

The Hygiene-First Cook

You worry about dirt hiding where a handle meets a blade. A one-piece stainless body has no joint at all, so rinsing is enough and sterilising is simple.

The Dishwasher-Loading Cook

You load the dishwasher every night. This all-stainless knife is compatible with dishwashers and dish dryers, so cleanup after a meal takes about a minute at most.

The Effortless-Cut Cook

You are tired of sawing through food. A three-step edge finish smooths the corner left after sharpening, so the blade glides through with little force.

The Left-Handed Cook

You cook left-handed and are tired of right-handed tools. This santoku suits both hands, so you hold it comfortably and cut with calm control every time.

Frequently Asked Questions

Where is this knife made?

Our Shoso santoku is made in Japan. Seki City in Gifu Prefecture is where our knife-making began in 1908, and it is one of the world's leading cutlery centers. We ship every knife directly from Japan, and the origin is also listed in the specifications, so you know exactly where your knife comes from before you order.

What is it made of?

The knife is molybdenum-vanadium stainless steel from blade tip to handle end, formed as one piece with no seam. It measures about 299 mm overall with a 165 mm blade and weighs about 135 g. The handle carries a hammered streamlined design that is registered, so your fingers can hold it firmly and the knife feels steady.

Can I put it in the dishwasher?

Yes. The one-piece stainless build is compatible with dishwashers, dish dryers and hot-water sterilisation. Remove dirt and water soon after use and dry the knife, because moisture left on the blade or handle can still cause rust or discoloration if the knife is left wet for a long time, and a dry cloth is enough.

Is the handle comfortable?

The hammered, streamlined handle gives your fingers a hold and does not slip, and a review notes that it dries easily. A few cooks with larger hands may find the handle slightly thin. The knife suits right- and left-handed cooks, and the weight of about 135 g is moderate and comfortable for daily use in any kitchen.

Is it very sharp?

Reviews describe cutting well and without sawing, and the three-step edge finish lowers cutting resistance. One review notes the knife is never too sharp even when new, so it suits everyday cooking. Whenever the edge softens, you can bring it back with a whetstone and keep it cutting well for many years of home cooking.

How is this knife shipped and when will it arrive?

We ship directly from Japan, and delivery takes 7-14 business days. Any item with a shelf life ships with a minimum of 6 months remaining. Tracking is provided so you can follow your parcel from our shipping point to your door. Your knife is packed carefully so the blade arrives safely and ready for your kitchen.
