Spyderco's involvement in kitchen knives dates back to the early 1980's. After being discontinued several years ago, they are now back by popular demand and better than ever. The Spyderco K08 Santoku Kitchen Knife has a special place in Spyderco's history as the first company to introduce a commercial santoku into the U.S. market. Its 6.81-inch blade is made from a premium MBS-26 stainless steel blade, ground exceptionally thin, and meticulously heat-treated for optimal edge retention. The durable black polypropylene plastic handle is injection molded directly onto the tang of the blade. It features a distinctive ‘stepped’ texture pattern that provides amazing comfort and control during use. If you're a serious chef, you owe it to yourself to give the Santoku a try. Once you do, you'll wonder how you ever got along without one.
