Chef´s knife Puukkopaja Jaska Nukari Santoku

A stylish Santoku workshop from Puukkopaja Jaska Nukari

Nukari Forge crafts high-quality kitchen knives with a perfect blend of performance and visual appeal. The Santoku, influenced by Japanese design, effortlessly handles meats, fish, poultry, and vegetables. The forged carbon steel blade (80CrV2) ensures long-lasting sharpness, with visible craftsmanship marks adding rustic charm. The curly birch handle provides a secure grip, and the wooden blade sheath protects when not in use.

With a hard steel (HRC approx. 61–61.5), the Santoku delivers a precise and biting cut. Its wide blade excels in chopping and crushing, making tasks like garlic mincing effortless. Regular care is essential for the carbon steel; keep the Santoku clean and dry, occasionally applying a touch of oil.

Nukari's Santoku is a fusion of European and Asian influences—a superb gift for those fond of Japanese-style kitchen knives and a great addition to any home kitchen.
