X50CrMoV15 German Steel
  • X — Stainless Steel: High-grade durable German Steel.
  • 50 — Carbon Content: 0.5% carbon offers good hardness, which results in good edge retention. The blade stays sharper, longer.
  • Cr — Chromium: Ensures high rust resistance in the finish of the blades.
  • Mo — Molybdenum: Increases toughness and reduces the likelihood of chipping.
  • V — Vanadium: Improves grain structure and durability to reduce wear.
  • 15 — Chromium Content: 15% chromium increases the resistance to oxidation and corrosion and allows the classification of ‘stainless steel'.
Use & Care + -
  • Wash your knives before first use.
  • Use the back or topside when scraping food off your cutting board. Us the sharp side will dull your blade.
  • To keep knives sharp, hand-washing is recommended. All Kilne knives are dishwasher safe.
  • Use a wood or plastic cutting board. Cutting onto metal, glass or stone surfaces can dull or damage knives.
  • Cutting frozen foods can also damage your knives.
  • Store knives in a knife block or on a magnetic strip to keep them sharp and protected. Keeping knives loose in drawers can cause premature wear and tear.
  • Although Kilne knives are designed to stay sharper longer, we still recommend you sharpen or hone them often. See FAQ for more details.

Game changer

This is a beautiful knife! I’m not a cook, nor do I enjoy cooking, but this knife is amazing for cutting up veggies. I guess all of my knives previously have been terrible, so using the Santoku knife is a real pleasure. Sharp, nicely balanced. No effort required. Love it !

Best bang for the buck!!

I most recently purchased this Santoku knife to add to my other Kline knives. I have not used it very long but it appears to be working as well as the others. I have had the chef, bread and paring knives for approximately 2 years. They have kept their edge with minimal honing and continue to perform exceptionally well with very regular use.
