A Japanese santoku knife built for left-handed cooks — and finished to perform like one.
A Knife Finished for Your Left Hand
Most double-bevel knives are marketed as ambidextrous, but many are subtly optimized for right-handed use. The NAGOMI Professional is different — each knife is carefully finished for left-handed users, so the blade moves naturally through ingredients with better control and less resistance.
The Santoku: Japan's Everyday Knife
The santoku is one of the most-used knives in Japanese kitchens, and for good reason. With a blade length of 180mm (7.1 in.), it handles meat, fish, and vegetables with equal ease — a reliable all-rounder for daily cooking.
Cutting Performance Built on a Trade Secret
The blade is made from a proprietary stainless steel developed exclusively by Mitsuboshi Cutlery. Designed to deliver a cutting feel close to carbon steel while remaining easy to maintain, the exact composition is — true to the craft — a closely guarded secret.
About Mitsuboshi Cutlery
