Santoku Simón PRO Olivo – 440C Forged Spanish Chef Knife

The Santoku Simón PRO Olivo is a premium Spanish-forged chef knife handcrafted in Spain, combining the precision of Japanese-style santoku geometry with the heritage of traditional European cutlery.

Key Features

• 440C Forged Steel Blade: High-carbon stainless steel forged for outstanding edge retention, corrosion resistance, and a razor-sharp finish.

• Made in Spain: Forged and finished by Simón, one of Spain's most respected cutlery makers.

Built for the Working Kitchen

The santoku — "three virtues" — excels at slicing, dicing, and mincing. The Simón PRO Olivo brings that versatility to home cooks and professional chefs alike, with a balanced blade that handles vegetables, herbs, boneless proteins, and delicate fish with equal ease.

Care: Hand wash and dry immediately. Occasionally oil the olive wood handle with food-safe mineral oil to preserve its depth and grain.
