This 165mm santoku is a stainless workhorse with a clean profile and a name that nods to legend — Minamoto Masamune. Featuring a silver three-layer construction (shirogane san-mai), it blends low-maintenance practicality with a refined Japanese edge.
The core is likely a stainless steel in the VG family or similar, offering great edge retention without the rust worries. Paired with a classic western-style handle and triple-rivet construction, it’s built for daily use and easy upkeep.
Fully refurbished and given a precision sharpening by hand at OKM, it’s ready to take on everything from fine veg prep to protein portioning. Great balance, smooth feel, and just the right weight for everyday efficiency.
