The Blacksmith
Muneishi Cutlery goes back to 1955 where grandfather, and now head of the company Kousuke Muneishi started making agricultural tools but has since branched off into making kitchen knives. Based in Tosa City, Kochi Prefecture, Japan, Muneishi knives are high performing but hold back on the flash to keep them affordable workhorses for the professional or home cook alike.
The Knife
The word santoku translates to "three virtues" which refers to slicing, dicing and chopping or meat, fish and vegetables depending on who you talk to. Basically the name implies the extreme versatility of the knife which is what has made this style of knife the most popular shape in Japanese home kitchens today. It is slightly shorter than your average western style chef's knife which makes it feel a bit less intimidating for the average home cook while still remaining capable and versatile, great for anyone looking for that one go-to knife. Great for professionals who are limited in terms of space or who just want something a little bit more nimble and compact that a standard Gyuto (Chef's Knife)
