Japanese style knife STYLE DE VIE, Katai Forged, Santoku, 14 cm

The KATAI Forged collection of the Dutch company STYLE DE VIE is the most impressive. It is the knife of this collection that won the prestigious RED DOT award in the category of food production tools in 2020!

Such an achievement led to the expansion of the KATAI Forged collection of exceptional beauty, versatility and comfort. Handmade 5-layer VG10 Japanese steel blade, perfect weight balance, unique handle, graceful shape - such knives fit perfectly in any kitchen, and perform the job flawlessly.

The small Santoku-shaped knife is extremely convenient to use: it can be used to comfortably cut, slice vegetables, fruits, and chop small products. 

Like every knife in the Katai collection, the handle of this one is made of olive root, filled with a special, strong, mechanical damage-resistant composite. Each of them is extremely convenient to use: it narrows towards the end, so it simply "sticks" to the hand. 

6,500 products from more than 60 countries competed in the Red Dot Awards. The independent commission, which has been selecting for 65 years, chooses the winners based on their visual appeal, functionality, original design, innovativeness, used materials and production excellence.
