## Summary description

Kasumi Tora Santoku knife with a 16.5 cm blade is a Japanese-style kitchen knife designed for versatile cutting tasks such as slicing, dicing and chopping vegetables, fish and meat. The Santoku profile provides a balanced, multipurpose edge suitable for everyday culinary use in home and professional kitchens.

## Long description

The Kasumi Tora Santoku knife with a 16.5 cm blade is a Japanese-style kitchen knife designed for versatile everyday use. Its Santoku profile combines a slightly shorter, flatter blade with a balanced tip geometry to handle slicing, dicing and chopping of vegetables, fish and meat. The blade length and shape suit both home cooks and professional kitchens that require a reliable, all-purpose cutting tool.
Advantages
The 16.5 cm blade offers a balance between control and cutting surface, making repetitive tasks easier while maintaining maneuverability for precision work. The Kasumi Tora model is made with attention to edge retention and a geometry tailored for multipurpose performance, which helps reduce the number of knives needed in a set. The knife’s weight distribution and handle design aim to provide stability and comfortable handling during extended use.
Suitable for
Slicing and portioning fish and seafood
Chopping and dicing vegetables and herbs
Preparing boneless meats and poultry
Everyday kitchen tasks that require a versatile mid-length blade
When it may not be suitable
The Santoku 16.5 cm is not intended for heavy bone cutting or prying tasks; using it on bones or very hard materials can damage the edge or blade. For very large roasts or whole poultry, a longer slicing knife or a dedicated carving knife may provide better reach and smoother long cuts.
Key specifications
Blade type: Japanese-style Santoku geometry
Blade length: 16.5 cm
Primary uses: slicing, dicing, chopping
Intended users: home cooks and professional kitchens
How to use
Use the Santoku with a chopping or rocking motion for vegetables and a controlled slicing motion for fish and boneless meats. Hold the handle with a firm but relaxed grip and guide the ingredient with the non-dominant hand using a claw grip for safety. Maintain a consistent angle when sharpening to preserve the factory edge and use a cutting board made of wood or approved plastic to reduce wear on the blade.
What to consider before purchase
Check that the 16.5 cm blade length fits your typical cutting tasks and storage options
Consider whether you need a dedicated boning or carving knife in addition to this multipurpose Santoku
Plan for routine sharpening and appropriate cutting board use to maintain performance
Usage recommendations
Regular honing and periodic professional or home sharpening will extend edge life. Wash the knife by hand, dry immediately and store in a block or on a magnetic strip to protect the blade and maintain safety.
