The Santoku knife originates from Japan and is renowned for its versatility and ability to handle a wide range of food preparation tasks. Its distinctive features include a wide, flat blade that facilitates cutting, slicing, and chopping of food. The tip of the blade is rounded, providing greater control during cutting and reducing the risk of damaging ingredients.
Due Cigni pays homage to two ancient knife traditions, the Japanese and the Maniago, which have been producing high-quality knives for millennia. In the Hakucho line, the typical Japanese lines with elongated blades and sharp tips merge with the style of Maniago, creating an elegant combination enriched by the precious olive wood handle.
