Frequently Asked Questions
How does the hollow edge help me get through meal prep faster?
The Granton hollow edge scallops create small air pockets between the blade and the food, which prevents slices of vegetables, meat, and fish from sticking to the knife so you can work continuously.
Will the ergonomic Pakkawood handle reduce fatigue during long cooking sessions?
Yes, the Pakkawood handle is shaped to minimize wrist tension, allowing you to prep multiple meals, large dinner party dishes, or weekly meal prep without hand strain.
How long will the 15-18 degree edge stay sharp during daily use?
The high-carbon Japanese stainless steel is hardened to hold its hand-polished 15-18 degree edge through long-lasting daily use, reducing the need for constant sharpening.
Can one 7 inch Santoku replace multiple knives in my kitchen?
Yes, the imarku Santoku is a versatile workhorse for slicing, dicing, and mincing vegetables, breaking down raw meat and fish, and even slicing bread, tomatoes, and delicate fruits.
Is this knife efficient enough for weekly meal prep?
Absolutely. The razor-sharp 15-18 degree edge, hollow edge non-stick scallops, and ergonomic handle make the imarku Santoku ideal for fast, repeated cutting during weekly meal prep.
I'm a culinary student. Will this handle a full professional prep shift?
Yes, the 7 inch forged blade, ergonomic Pakkawood handle, and high-carbon Japanese stainless steel make the imarku Santoku reliable enough for restaurant kitchens, commercial prep stations, and culinary school.
Will this knife help me prep dinner faster on busy weeknights?
Yes, the non-stick hollow edge, razor-sharp 15-18 degree edge, and balanced 2.5mm blade allow you to slice, dice, and mince vegetables, meat, and fish quickly and with less effort.
Can I use this for all three major prep tasks: vegetables, meat, and fish?
Yes, the 7 inch forged Santoku is designed for slicing, dicing, and mincing vegetables, breaking down raw meat, and portioning fish, making it an all-in-one daily workhorse.
Is this a good knife to bring to a commercial prep station?
Yes, the imarku Santoku is built with high-carbon Japanese stainless steel, a Granton hollow edge, and an ergonomic handle trusted by professional chefs and culinary students.
Will I be able to slice tomatoes, bread, and delicate fruits with this?
Yes, the razor-sharp 15-18 degree edge glides through crusty bread, ripe tomatoes, and delicate fruits without crushing them, making it a versatile single-knife solution.
How does a Santoku compare to a chef knife for prep speed?
The shorter 7 inch Santoku blade and hollow edge scallops allow for faster, more controlled up-and-down chopping motions, which many cooks find more efficient than the rocking motion of a long chef knife.
How does this compare to using a serrated knife for vegetables and bread?
The imarku Santoku's hollow edge and 15-18 degree edge allow you to slice crusty bread, tomatoes, and vegetables with one versatile tool, eliminating the need to switch knives.
How does this compare to a German chef knife for daily meal prep?
German chef knives are typically sharpened to 20+ degrees, while the imarku Santoku's 15-18 degree Japanese edge is sharper, and the Granton hollow edge reduces sticking for faster prep.
What if the knife arrives dull or doesn't perform as expected?
You are covered by a 3-month free refund and 1-year free exchange, so any performance issue is fully protected.
I'm worried the 7 inch size will feel too small. Is it big enough for big prep jobs?
The 7 inch blade is the most popular all-purpose size and is large enough to break down whole chickens, large melons, and big batches of vegetables while still feeling easy to control.
Will I need to sharpen this often to keep up with heavy use?
The high-carbon Japanese stainless steel holds its 15-18 degree edge far longer than standard knives, but occasional honing and periodic whetstone sharpening will keep it performing like new.
How do I sharpen this 7 inch Santoku knife at home?
You can maintain the 15-18 degree edge with a whetstone, a honing rod for quick touch-ups between uses, or a quality pull-through sharpener designed for Japanese-style edges. Honing before each use will keep the blade performing between full sharpenings.
How should I wash and care for this knife?
Hand wash with warm soapy water, rinse, and dry immediately with a soft towel. Avoid the dishwasher, as harsh detergents and prolonged moisture can damage the edge and Pakkawood handle over time.
How should I store this knife to protect the edge?
Store the imarku Santoku on a magnetic strip, in a knife block, in an in-drawer knife organizer, or in the original gift box to protect the blade edge and prevent accidents.
Does this knife work with a magnetic knife strip or wall mount?
Yes, the high-carbon Japanese stainless steel blade is fully magnetic and is compatible with most magnetic knife strips, wall-mounted holders, and magnetic blocks.
Is this knife compatible with my existing knife block set?
Yes, the 7 inch Santoku fits most standard countertop knife blocks that have a slot at least 1.5 inches wide and 7.5 inches deep. It is also a great companion piece alongside a paring knife, bread knife, and chef knife.
What is included in the box when I order this knife?
Your order includes one imarku 7 inch Santoku knife in your chosen color and finish, presented in a high-end black gift box with protective inserts. No additional accessories are required to start using the knife.

Every imarku Santoku is backed by a 3-month free refund and a 1-year free exchange warranty. Simply contact our support team and we will replace or refund your order.
What is the difference between a Santoku knife and a chef knife?
A Santoku is a Japanese-style knife with a shorter, typically 7 inch blade, a flat edge for up-and-down chopping, and often Granton hollow edge scallops to prevent food from sticking. A traditional Western chef knife is usually 8 to 10 inches long with a curved edge for rocking cuts. The Santoku is more compact, easier to control, and excels at slicing, dicing, and mincing.
