Santoku 'Try Me' Knife 5in

Damashiro®

The Cuisine::pro® Damashiro® 'Try Me' 5" Santoku Knife delivers the versatile performance of a full-size santoku in a smaller, more agile design. Perfect for slicing meats, cheeses, vegetables, and nuts, it offers precision and balance for detailed prep work. The knife’s low tip and broad blade makes it ideal for slicing, dicing and mincing, while recessed scallops reduce friction and help release thin slices and sticky ingredients with ease.

We accept returns within 30 days of delivery if the item is unused, in its original packaging, and accompanied by proof of purchase. Please note that personalized or clearance items are not eligible for return. For return requests, simply email our Customer Service Team at info@cuisinepro.com to obtain a Return Authorization Number (RA).

What if my item arrives damaged or faulty?

If your order arrives incomplete, damaged, or defective, please contact info@cuisinepro.com with your order number and a brief description (photos help, too).  If the product is confirmed faulty, we will cover the return shipping and send you a replacement or refund.

How long will delivery take?

Orders are usually dispatched within 1–3 business days, and delivered in approximately 5–7 business days via USPS. You will receive a confirmation email once your order has shipped. Please note that delivery times may vary depending on your location and stock availability.

What does the Cuisine::pro® LIFETIME GUARANTEE cover?

All products are backed by the Cuisine::pro® LIFETIME GUARANTEE, provided by Global Retail Brands Limited. This warranty covers defects in materials and workmanship for 25 years under normal domestic use and proper care. It does not cover normal wear and tear, misuse, or improper cleaning. Once reviewed, if your claim is approved, we will either repair or replace your product. To make a claim, please contact info@cuisinepro.com, and our Customer Service Team will guide you through the process.

How should I care for my knives?

We recommend handwashing your knives with mild soap and warm water, then drying  immediately. Avoid dishwashers as the high heat and abrasive detergents may dull your blades and handle and increase risk of rust and corrosion.  Regular honing keeps your blade sharp—professional sharpening may be needed only once a year with proper care.

    Excellents couteaux

    Je me suis procuré plusieurs couteaux dans mon endroit préféré et je regrette de ne pas avoir fait cet achat plus tôt. Les couteaux Damashiro sont non seulement très beaux mais vraiment très efficaces et leurs prises dans la main est parfaite.

    Je les recommande.

    De plus, ils sont garantis !
