Description
The MAC Professional Santoku features a proprietary molybdenum-vanadium steel blade sharpened to a 15-degree edge per side, delivering surgical precision on every cut. Hollow-ground dimples along the blade face reduce friction and prevent food from sticking. The ergonomic Pakka handle is ambidextrous and NSF-certified for commercial use.

Non-Stick Precision
Slice through a ripe tomato and watch the round fall away cleanly—no drag, no crush, no clinging to the blade. The hollow-ground dimples create an air pocket that releases food effortlessly.
From morning prep to plating, every cut feels frictionless.
MAC’s Edge Philosophy
MAC grinds each blade to a symmetric 15-degree per side, thinner than most Western knives, achieving a sharpness that rivals single-bevel Japanese blades while remaining user-friendly for both hands.
The molybdenum-vanadium alloy resists staining and holds its keen edge through professional-volume prep without frequent honing.

Knife Care & Maintenance
Keep your blade performing at its best. Rinse and dry after each use to prevent corrosion. Apply a thin coat of mineral oil to the blade periodically. Sharpen with a whetstone or honing rod at a consistent angle. Store in a sheath, knife roll, or magnetic strip — never loose in a drawer. For carbon and Damascus steel, wipe after contact with acidic foods. For folding knives, clean the pivot area and apply a drop of lubricant to ensure smooth deployment.
