The Baby Santoku is a smaller, lighter version of the classic Santoku, with a thinner blade designed for precise prep work. Ideal for garlic, limes, ginger, tomatoes and strawberries, it offers quick, easy handling and excellent control, while still being capable of larger tasks such as trimming meat or deboning chicken. It can even double as a cheese knife for serving.
The familiar Santoku silhouette is given extra blade width for comfortable finger placement, paired with a signature Nomi bio-resin handle, partly made from vegetable scraps. The core steel is hardened to 62 HRC for long-lasting edge retention, finished with a light sandblast and engraved nomi logo.
Like all nomi knives, it is assembled by hand in a small studio in Stockholm.

Care - Use a wooden or plastic cutting board, as hard surfaces like glass, marble or ceramic can damage the edge. Hand wash only with mild detergent and dry immediately with a soft cloth to prevent rust. Store safely in a knife block, protective drawer insert or magnetic strip, and avoid loose storage in drawers. Serrated knives require little sharpening and should not be honed. When needed, have the blade professionally sharpened to maintain its edge
Note - Handle with care. Always use nomi knives with a secure grip and only for food preparation
