Mizuki 瑞樹 7″ Damascus Steel Santoku Knife 三徳包丁
Introducing the Mizuki 瑞樹 by Shimeru, a premium 7″ santoku knife that celebrates the enduring beauty of natural craftsmanship. Named after the auspicious "flourishing tree," the Mizuki is forged for those who seek timeless elegance and dependable performance in every cut.
The blade is forged from 67 layers of premium Damascus steel with a VG10 cutting core, delivering exceptional sharpness, durability, and edge retention. The distinctive wave pattern across the blade is unique to each knife, a testament to traditional forging mastery. Honed to a precise 12° V-shape edge—significantly sharper than the 20–25° found on typical Western knives—the Mizuki glides effortlessly through vegetables, proteins, and delicate ingredients alike.
The handle is crafted from rich, polished rosewood with a full-tang triple-rivet construction, ensuring outstanding strength and balance. The ergonomic Western-style grip fits naturally in the hand, providing secure control and reducing fatigue during extended use. A decorative mosaic pin adds a refined finishing touch, while the smooth, streamlined contours make this handle as comfortable as it is beautiful.
At 7″, the Mizuki santoku excels at the three essential cuts—slicing, dicing, and mincing. Its wide blade profile allows for easy scooping and transfer of ingredients, while the balanced weight provides agile, confident handling for both everyday meal preparation and more ambitious culinary projects.

It’s not bad, but I was hoping for better performance.

An excellent addition to my kitchen tools; highly recommended.

This knife arrived in great condition and has been a solid tool for everyday cooking tasks. The edge retention could be better, but it gets the job done.
The knife is decent, but the blade isn’t as strong as it should be.
The balance is really good, not too heavy in the blade or the handle. Makes it feel really nimble when you're doing finer work.
Cant believe how sharp it is, you have to be a bit careful at first. Great for slicing tomatoes and peppers, no crushing at all.
Used it to break down a whole chicken, went through the joints easily. Cleans up nice and easy too.
This knife is sharp and easy to use, though the blade dulls quicker than I’d like. It’s a good tool for everyday cooking.
The knife was delivered in record time, and the quality is exceptional.
Perfect size for a santoku, the 7 inch is ideal for most jobs. Flat profile is great for push cutting, glides through onions.
This knife makes food preparation quick and easy.
Massive upgrade from my old supermarket knife. The VG10 core holds an edge brilliantly, just a quick hone now and then keeps it going.
Solid performer, looks the part on my magnetic strip. I was expecting it to be a bit lighter based on some reviews I read, but its not a problem, just different.
I appreciate the quality of this knife. It’s sharp, well-balanced, and seems built to last. A great investment for any home cook.
It does the job, but it feels cheaply made.
