7-inch, Fine Edge Santoku

Since 1731, ZWILLING has shaped the standard of German knifemaking—built on a tradition of quality and excellence forged nearly three centuries ago. Our limited-release ZWILLING 1731 collection reflects our commitment to quality, precision and innovation, creating the crown jewel of ZWILLING cutlery. More than our most exclusive knife line, it’s a celebration of the heritage and craftsmanship that have defined us for generations.

Beautifully balanced and exceptionally ergonomic, each handle is carved from prized ziricote hardwood, chosen for its rich color and one-of-a-kind natural grain—no two handles are alike. Designed to feel like a natural extension of your hand, the curved bolster optimizes the professional pinch grip, enabling precision, safety and comfort.

Precision-forged in Germany from high-performance Nitro-V steel with 60 HRC, each blade delivers exceptional sharpness, durability and corrosion resistance. Our fully forged SIGMAFORGE blades combined with our FRIODUR ice-hardening technique create a strong, resilient blade that’s designed to start sharp and stay sharper longer.

This 7-inch santoku is perfect for all kitchen tasks. Santoku - Japanese for "three virtues" - excels at three cutting techniques: expertly mince garlic, slice cucumber, and dice onions with this Asian-style all-rounder.
