The Santoku is particularly easy to handle thanks to its wide blade. It is equally suitable for meat, fish and vegetables. A knife that is also becoming increasingly popular in Europe. It is originally a Japanese blade shape for an all-purpose knife. Translated, its name means "the three virtues".

The gently curved handles are made from indestructible black G10, which is not sensitive to temperature or moisture. From the very first contact with the Boker Saga knife series, the successful ergonomics become clear: every curve, every swing in the line nestles in its place in the hand and conveys absolute control and an outstanding cutting experience. The dovetail-like widened handle end of the larger models provides additional grip security. Boker Saga owes its high stability to the completely continuous tang that runs through the knife (in the same design as many hunting knives) from the tip of the blade to the end of the handle. Optimum cutting performance is ensured not only by the complete flat grind of the blade with stonewash finish, but also by the choice of 440C as the blade steel, which far surpasses conventional kitchen knife steels in terms of edge retention and corrosion resistance. This surface finish, which is produced using a special grinding process, is characterised by excellent gliding properties in the cutting material and thus promotes the already excellent cutting performance. Furthermore, the microstructure of the stonewash finish is extremely resistant to scratches, as these are often visually lost in the structure. The large hollow rivets, which bear the unmistakable signature of Jesper Voxnæs, provide a special accent.
