Victorinox ‘Grand Maitre’ Forged Santoku Knife with Fluted Edge – Wood, 17cm

Combining beautiful form with high function, the Grand Maitre Santoku Knife from the Victorinox series of forged knives has a full tang blade that is uniformly hardened and perfectly balanced. But it’s not just this blade that gives the Santoku knife its robust strength – its wooden handle continues this theme, being both elegant and hard-wearing. Hand-polished and ergonomically designed, this handle promises its user comfort in its hold and supreme ease in its use, however long that might be.

This is a graceful all-rounder, designed for the precision cutting of everything from meat and fish to fruit, vegetables and cheeses, its fluted edge minimising the chance of food sticking to its blade. For use as much in private homes as in professional establishments.

In 1884, Karl Elsener opened his cutlers workshop in Ibach Schwyz and in 1891 he supplied the soldiers knives to the Swiss Army for the very first time. He went on to develop the Swiss Officers and Sports Knife now the iconic Swiss Army Knife in 1897, creating the foundation for a flourishing company that would be able to hold its own on the world stage and still does to this day.
