ZWILLING Arc Small Santoku Knife 140 mm, FC61 Stainless Steel (38877-141)

$119.70

Brand	Zwilling
Type	Arc small santoku knife 38877-141
Blade Length	14 cm
Weight	About 130 g
Material	FC61 stainless knife steel blade; POM resin handle
Made In	Japan
Key Features	Arch handle, hand-finished edge, not dishwasher safe

A compact FC61 blade with a keen edge
We make the 14 cm blade from FC61 high-hardness stainless steel, which gives a keen edge and good durability for vegetables, fruit and everyday preparation. Owners say it cuts very well, though one found the tomato cut only so-so and the knife a little light.
An arch handle that fits the hand
The POM resin handle has a smooth, rounded arch shape held by rivets, designed for a stable grip and comfort in daily cooking. One owner with small hands says the grip fits easily, and she was freed from the hard-to-grip knife she had used for years.
A light, small, easy-to-store knife for daily use
The knife weighs about 130 g and the blade is only 14 cm, so it is easy to maneuver in a narrow kitchen and easy to store. One owner says it is ideal for the small kitchen of someone living alone, and another found it useful for small jobs.
Made at our own Seki factory
We make the Arc series at our own factory in Seki City, Gifu Prefecture, with hardening, grinding, edge sharpening, finishing and inspection all under consistent quality control. Each knife is finished carefully one at a time, and the knife is made in Japan.
Hand washing for a long-lasting edge
The knife is not dishwasher safe, so wash it by hand with a soft sponge and dry it at once. Cut on a wood or soft plastic board and avoid bones and frozen food, so that the keen edge lasts.
Honest notes on weight and price
One owner found the knife too light and the tomato cut only average, and the price is higher than some owners expected. We list these facts plainly, so you can judge whether a small, light, well-made santoku suits your hands and your kitchen.

IMPORTANT

The blade is very sharp. Keep out of reach of children. Never use a dishwasher; wash by hand and dry at once. Avoid hard foods and bones, which can damage the edge.

The Small-Hands Home Cook: You want a knife that fits you. A big, heavy blade is awkward in a small kitchen, and a handle that is hard to grip with small hands makes cooking tiring, which is the tool's fault, not yours. Our Arc small santoku gives you a compact 14 cm FC61 stainless blade, a rounded arch handle in POM resin that settles into your palm and a weight of about 130 g. It is made at our own factory in Seki City, Japan, so one well-sized santoku can serve your small kitchen.

Frequently Asked Questions

Where is this knife made?

Our Arc small santoku is made at our own factory in Seki City, Gifu Prefecture, Japan, one of the world's leading cutlery centers. We were founded in 1731 in Solingen, Germany, and we ship every knife directly from Japan. The origin is also listed in the specifications, so you know exactly where your knife comes from before you order.

How small is it?

The blade is 14 cm long and the knife weighs about 130 g, which is compact next to a typical 16.5 or 18 cm santoku. One owner calls it just the right size for a narrow kitchen, and several say it suits small hands. One owner found it a little too light, so consider your own preference.

Can it go in the dishwasher?

No. The listing states that the knife is not dishwasher safe, so please wash it by hand with a soft sponge and dry it at once. Hand washing protects the hand-finished edge and the riveted POM handle, and it keeps the knife looking bright for many years of everyday home cooking and light preparation of food.

What is FC61 steel?

FC61 is a high-hardness stainless knife steel that gives a keen edge and good durability while resisting rust. The listing describes the cut as sharp and long-lasting. Owners say the knife cuts very well, though one found tomatoes only so-so, and a whetstone or a simple sharpener restores the edge when it softens, which is quick to do at home.

Is it a good first knife?

Yes. Owners describe it as ideal for the small kitchen of someone living alone, and one bought it for a young son who loves cooking. Its compact size, light weight and comfortable handle make it easy to learn with at home, and the trusted maker's name gives you confidence that it will last well for years of everyday 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.
