The santoku (三徳) knife originated in Japan during the Showa period (1926-1989). Its direct predecessor was the bunka knife, which combined the properties of the gyuto (meat) and nakiri (vegetable) knives. The name "santoku" refers to the knife's three main uses, often called the "three virtues" of slicing, dicing, and mincing.
