Santoku means 'Three Virtues' or 'To solve Three Problems'. The virtues or problems are slicing, dicing and mincing. Santoku is usually found in 160mm - 190mm lengths. These are more and more popular in Western kitchens due to the unique shape and smaller easy to handle size.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout Moritaka Ishime -\u003c\/b\u003eMoritaka Hamono was founded in 1293 and have been producing high quality blades for 31 generations. I think they know what they’re doing by now. Five generations ago the family made the switch to producing only Hocho (kitchen knives).The knives made by the Moritaka family have a real classiness and beauty. This series of knives are known for a thinness which translates to fantastic sharpness. This finish is known as Ishime, Rock Surface, and was not used on kitchen knives before this series. This series is exclusive to Knifewear.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ciframe src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/_T8ovxgNQec\" height=\"315\" width=\"560\" data-dashlane-frameid=\"2705\" allowfullscreen=\"\" allow=\"autoplay; encrypted-media\" frameborder=\"0\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Moritaka","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":39295860080814,"sku":"MOI185SA-WO","price":229.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0780\/9439\/products\/moritaka-ishime-santoku-1_3ee03856-1c98-4e5d-85bc-64cc90be6c85.jpg?v=1663605828","url":"https:\/\/knifewear.mom\/en-us\/products\/moritaka-ishime-santoku-185mm","provider":"Knifewear - Handcrafted Japanese Kitchen Knives","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
