Craftsmanship & Maker Notes
MAC knives are widely respected in professional kitchens for one reason: they cut extremely well and hold up to daily use. This 165mm santoku is a perfect example of that philosophy.
The blade is thin, lightweight, and ground for smooth, effortless cutting with minimal resistance. At just 95g, it feels quick and responsive in hand, making it ideal for vegetable prep, proteins, and general day-to-day cooking.
MAC’s proprietary stainless steel offers an excellent balance of sharpness, toughness, and corrosion resistance, making this an easy-care knife that still delivers serious performance. The western-style handle provides a familiar, comfortable grip for long prep sessions and makes this an approachable option for cooks transitioning into Japanese knives.
This is a tool-first knife — clean, efficient, and built to be used hard.
Summary
A lightweight, razor-sharp Japanese santoku from MAC. Trusted by professionals, easy to maintain, and incredibly versatile, this is a dependable everyday knife that earns its place in any kitchen.
