Xin Santoku Knives: The Pinnacle of Japanese Craftsmanship & Elegance

The artistry of knife crafting has ancient roots, transcending cultures and evolving through centuries. Xin, a name synonymous with exceptional craftsmanship, brings to you its exquisite collection of Santoku Knives, available exclusively at Knife Country USA.

For the uninitiated, Santoku – meaning "three virtues" in Japanese – is a knife design optimized for slicing, dicing, and mincing. The blade is typically shorter and flatter, making it a versatile tool in the kitchen. Xin's take on this Japanese classic redefines luxury and efficiency in knife craftsmanship.

Exuding elegance, the XC122 boasts a 13" (33.02cm) overall length with a 7.63" (19.38cm) mirror-polished Damascus steel blade, centered around a VG-10 core known for its superior edge retention. The handle, a mesmerizing blend of rosewood, buffalo horn, and nickel silver, not only offers an unmatched grip but is also a testament to Xin's commitment to luxury.

While this knife focuses more on the handle, it's an embodiment of elegance and functionality. With a handle crafted from buffalo horn, rosewood, and nickel silver, the XC142 is a testament to Xin's commitment to craftsmanship, even in the subtlest of details.
