Lucy's Verdict

A best compact all-rounder with a clear point of difference: mac is here for cooks who judge a knife by how little resistance they feel through food.

Lucy · Head of Curation

Why we chose it

This earns its place as the flatter, compact alternative to a chef’s knife, especially for cooks who push-cut and spend a lot of time on vegetables. The MSK-65 is a 17 cm dimpled santoku with MAC’s thin, double-bevel cutting geometry and a Pakkawood handle. At 6 cm, it keeps the santoku format compact while still giving useful board coverage.

Who it's best for

Buy it if you want a compact all-rounder mainly for vegetables, fish and boneless meat; you naturally use push-cutting, chopping and short slicing strokes; you prioritise thin geometry and low cutting resistance over decoration. Professional Santoku Dimples is the recommendation when those priorities line up.

Why Lucy recommends it

  • The MSK-65 is a 17 cm dimpled santoku with MAC’s thin, double-bevel cutting geometry and a Pakkawood handle.
  • At 6 cm, it keeps the santoku format compact while still giving useful board coverage.
  • Role: compact all-rounder; best for vegetables, fish and boneless meat.
