Inspired by classic Japanese knives
SCANPAN’s range of high-quality kitchen knives includes elegant Asian-style knives inspired by the designs of popular and renowned Japanese knives.
The Japanese santoku knife is a favourite among professional chefs, home cooks and other food enthusiasts. Its relatively short, dimpled blade makes it particularly suitable for cutting vegetables into paper-thin slices or very small dice.
Classic Asian-style knives in fully forged German steel
The Classic range is characterised by high-quality German steel, forged from a steel blank into the finished knife for exceptional sharpness and durability. These knives feature a heat-treated blade in classic stainless steel with a tapered edge for optimum cutting performance. The elegant oval handle has an ergonomic curve and a non-slip synthetic coating for added safety during use. With correct storage and care, the materials and manufacturing method help the knives perform well for years. A clean, elegant knife range inspired in part by classic Japanese knives.
