This 7" santoku is the best of both worlds. Made from stamped premium German Steel that has been ice hardened for longer edge retention it also has all the attributes of an Asian style blade with a 10 degree edge and hollows to keep food from sticking to the blade. This knife will quickly become your favorite for all those chopping, mincing and cubing projects.
Zwilling Gourmet knives are made in Germany. Sharp stamped blade of this santoku is ideal for mincing, dicing, and slicing. Lightweight with three-riveted handle for comfortable cutting.
The hollow edge is designed to aid in the release of foods. It really works! the air pockets create just enough of a gap to help foods slide off your knife. This is a very sharp, light weight, durable knife. this will cut lots of produce and herbs easily and cleanly. Classic three rivet handle which is very comfortable. Reach for this knife when you have a lot of prep- you will be glad you did!
You gotta love a santoku for how well it chops, slices and dices. This Gourmet santoku performs well. Since it's a stamped blade it's lighter in weight than a forged blade. The handle is comfortable. Great knife.
Lightweight but durable, this Gourmet santoku knife is comfortable to grip and plenty to sharp to easily tackle those chopping and mincing prep tasks. With the help of the hollow edge divets on the blade, food will stay out of your way as you work.
This is a really nice stamped Santoku. The steel is really durable for a stamped knife since the high carbon stainless steel was ice hardened, helping give the knife a longer and sharper edge than most stamped blades. I like how the indentions help release food off the blade. The handle really contours nicely in my hand as well. A great comparable knife if you like the look of the Zwilling Pro collection, but want a budget friendly price point.
This knife is so sharp, it can get through the toughest of vegetables. Made from German Special Formula Steel it will last a life time. I like that the handle is set back a little ways so that you can use a pinch grip with out gripping hard - so no sore hands after those big kitchen projects.
