The Microtech Santoku 6" 3200B-1DLCLWCFS is a premium kitchen knife that combines a blade made of Böhler M390MK steel with a lightweight and striking Live Wire carbon fiber handle. The black DLC coating contrasts with the black-and-copper carbon fiber pattern and the brown titanium bolster, creating Microtech’s signature blend of high functionality and refined design.
The 6-inch Santoku blade is ideal for slicing vegetables, portioning ingredients, chopping herbs and garlic, and preparing fish. The Full Tang construction means that the steel tang runs through the entire Handle, providing a solid and stable base for a knife designed for regular kitchen use.
Böhler M390MK – steel with high wear resistance
The blade is made of Böhler M390MK steel, a special grade of M390 developed for Microtech in collaboration with Böhler. The material is distinguished by its high resistance to corrosion and abrasion, as well as its excellent ability to retain a sharp edge. In a kitchen knife, this means the blade can be used for a long time with a properly prepared cutting edge, provided the blade is properly maintained.
Santoku blade, flat grind, and black DLC coating
The 152.00 mm blade features the classic proportions of a 6-inch Santoku and a flat grind that facilitates precise guidance of the blade through food. This geometry works well for slicing vegetables, portioning fillets, preparing even slices, or quickly chopping ingredients.
The black DLC coating gives the blade a modern, technical look and creates a striking contrast with the decorative handle. With a blade thickness of 2.30 mm, the knife retains a slender profile suitable for precise kitchen work.
Live Wire Carbon Fiber, Titanium Bolster, and Full Tang
The handle is made of Live Wire Carbon Fiber with a distinctive black-and-copper color scheme. The material is paired with a bronze-colored titanium bolster, which creates an elegant transition between the blade and the handle and emphasizes the exclusive nature of this configuration.
A steel Full Tang runs beneath the grips, ensuring a solid connection between the blade and the handle. The set is complemented by a blade guard and a cleaning cloth, useful for storing and caring for the knife.

Frequently Asked Questions
What tasks is a 6-inch Santoku best suited for?
The Santoku shape works well for slicing vegetables, portioning ingredients, chopping herbs and garlic, and preparing fish. The 152.00 mm length provides a good balance between cutting surface area and blade control.
How do you care for the Böhler M390MK steel in a kitchen knife?
After use, wash the knife, dry it thoroughly, and store it in a way that protects the edge from contact with other metal objects. M390MK has high corrosion resistance, but proper care helps preserve the blade’s surface and sharpness for a long time.
How do you sharpen a Microtech Santoku?
It is best to maintain the factory edge angle and guide the abrasive evenly along the entire blade. Due to the M390MK’s high resistance to abrasion, high-performance sharpening materials, especially diamond-based ones, work well.
How do you care for a Live Wire Carbon Fiber handle?
It is best to clean the handle with a soft, slightly damp cloth, then dry it thoroughly. Avoid harsh chemicals and abrasives that could alter the appearance of the carbon fiber or titanium bolster.
What is the included blade guard used for?
The blade guard protects the cutting edge during storage and reduces the risk of accidental contact with other objects. Before attaching the blade guard, the blade should be clean and thoroughly dried.
