influenced by western culture in modern times, Japanese chefs gradually accepted and began to widely use western-style double-edged knives. However, in the process of use, it is found that the shape and weight of the ox knife are not in line with the physiological characteristics of the orientals, and it is sanitary but cumbersome to use different sizes of ox knives according to different meats, vegetables and fruits, so an improved version called santoku, which means "all-round knife", was created.
When Hong Kong and Taiwan translated santoku, they added free translation, calling cutting meat, vegetables and fruits the "three virtues" of knives, so it was translated as "three virtues knife". The origin of "Three Virtues Knife" can be described as a microcosm of the cultural exchange between the East and the West.
