Microtech Santoku 4.2'' Kitchen Knife Black Cherry G10, Stonewashed M390MK (3300-10BC)

Microtech Santoku 4.2" Black Cherry G10, Stonewashed M390MK – a compact Santoku kitchen knife

Microtech Santoku 4.2" 3300-10BC is a compact kitchen knife featuring a Santoku blade made of Böhler M390MK steel with a stonewashed finish and a Black Cherry G10 handle. The design is tailored for everyday kitchen tasks that require precision, good blade control, and comfortable maneuvering on the cutting board.

The 107 mm blade offers a handy size for slicing vegetables, fruits, herbs, and smaller portions of food. The Black Cherry G10 handle is 117 mm long and provides a stable grip, while its 120 g weight allows for good control over the knife without putting excessive strain on the hand during prolonged use.

Böhler M390MK – steel with high corrosion resistance

The blade is made of Böhler M390MK steel, which offers high corrosion resistance, excellent edge retention, and high wear resistance. In a kitchen environment, where the blade regularly comes into contact with moisture and food, these properties ensure comfortable use and long-lasting sharpness.

Santoku – a versatile profile for cutting on a cutting board

The Santoku profile is ideal for slicing, chopping, and portioning ingredients. The relatively wide blade provides good control when working on a cutting board and makes it easier to move sliced ingredients, while the 4.2" length allows for comfortable handling of the knife when working with small to medium-sized ingredients.

Flat grind and stonewashed finish

The flat grind promotes even glide of the blade through food and provides functional geometry for everyday kitchen tasks. The stonewashed finish gives the blade surface a matte, slightly irregular texture and complements the knife’s utilitarian character well.

Black Cherry G10 – a durable handle with a distinctive color scheme

The handle is made of Black Cherry G10. This material offers high resistance to wear, moisture, and daily use, while also providing a stable and rigid construction. The dark red color gives the knife a distinctive look and sets it apart from classic black or natural kitchen knife variants.

Compact Size and Precise Control

With an overall length of 224 mm, a blade length of 107 mm, and a weight of 120 g, this model maintains compact proportions suitable for precise work. The blade’s 2.30 mm thickness ensures adequate rigidity, while the 117 mm handle length facilitates confident blade control during everyday food preparation.

Blade Guard

The set includes a blade guard, which protects the cutting edge during storage and transport. The model does not come with a sheath, so the guard serves as the primary protective feature when the knife is not in use.
