Do you guys have any recomendations for some nice stainless steel santokus?
Budget is 100-170$

Thank you!

I'd like to put forward the Gesshin Uraku in SKD 11 from JKI. I do so with caution as I don't have it but I think the nakiri is great - guess their santoku can't be that different.

It's already $10 over budget and might be a difficult purchase in Europe but you could always post a WTB on BST - you never know your luck.

Tetogi knives have some options for you, for example:
Hitohira SLD santoku

I got this one for my mom and dad: Hitohira FJ VG-10 Gyuto 240mm (Wa/ No Handle)
It is a wonderfull laser at a good Price. I made a custom handle for it . I will check the santoku out.

Tsunehisa ginsan.

Depending whether it is for yourself: I don't like much the Misono UX-10 series, and it has all to do with the frankly unpleasant sharpening. A lot of not-knifenerds though do like the bite it offers — even when perfectly dull — and the 180 Santoku has a remarkably elegant design.

Matsutani is actually lower than $100 but they punch way above their price point, I would buy the VG1 version instead of VG10. Otherwise Takamura VG10 or R2.

I just put a Kei Kobayashi up for sale that's stainless SG2, tall, and super thin if you like lasers. I agree with Humble that tsunehisa ginsan is tremendous bang for buck, I got my mom the nakiri.
