Santoku knife HERCULES INOX 18 cm, stainless steel rivets, Lion Sabatier

Product detailed description

HERCULES combines strength and control in a pleasant way. It doesn't appear overly technical or ostentatiously professional, but rather very confident and practical. It's the kind of collection that can handle everyday tasks and serious cooking with the calm of someone who knows that precision is a more useful quality in the kitchen than an unnecessarily large ego.

Main advantages:

• The Santoku knife from the HERCULES collection with an 18 cm blade length is a versatile tool inspired by Japanese cuisine, designed for fast, precise, and efficient cutting of meat, fish, and vegetables in everyday cooking.
• The name Santoku means three virtues, meaning the ability to handle slicing, dicing, and chopping, making it an exceptionally practical knife for a wide range of kitchen tasks.
• The wide blade provides stable cutting guidance and allows for easy processing of larger ingredients, while also supporting a natural work rhythm without unnecessary complications.
• A straighter blade profile compared to a classic chef's knife facilitates precise cutting on a cutting board and provides greater control during finer tasks.
• The scallops on the blade reduce food adhesion, so ingredients stick less and individual cuts remain smooth even when working with moister or delicate ingredients.
• This design proves particularly effective when slicing vegetables, filleting fish, or portioning meat, where clean cuts and preserving ingredient structure are important.
• Thanks to its versatility, the Santoku knife easily becomes the main work tool, which you will use for most kitchen preparations without needing to frequently switch knives.
• The 5Cr15MoV steel used for the blade offers excellent corrosion resistance and stable cutting properties that meet the demands of everyday home cooking.
• A hardness in the range of 58-60 HRC provides higher edge retention, so the knife maintains its functional sharpness for longer even with regular kitchen use.
• Grinding at a 25° angle creates a balanced ratio between sharpness and durability, so the knife cuts confidently and can withstand normal use without quickly dulling.
• The knife's welded construction ensures strength and stability during use, so you can rely on consistent performance with every use.
• The handle made of ABS material combines low weight with high resistance to moisture and mechanical stress, making it a practical choice for everyday use.
• The ergonomic shape of the handle supports a comfortable and secure grip, so the knife fits well in your hand and allows for precise cutting even during prolonged use.
• Three stainless steel rivets reinforce the connection between the handle and the blade, increasing the overall stability of the construction and simultaneously highlighting the clean, functional design of the knife.
• The knife's balance is designed to support control and smooth movement, so the work feels natural and effortless even with intensive use.
• Supplied in fully recyclable cardboard packaging that respects practical and ecological requirements without unnecessary compromises.
