The best things about this knife is its made from German Special Formula Steel and forged from one piece of steel. This knife will last a lifetime. A little secret - the angle on the blade is cut to an Asian standard, 9-12 deg on each side, so it feels like a Japanese knife when you use it.
My daughter's favorite knife. she is learning to cook and likes to help chop the vegetables. This knife is just the right size and weight for her petite hand. I like the classic style and the balance of the knife. The shape of this blade makes it perfect for chopping and mincing. the Pro S series is a high quality line. The Santoku is a perfect complement to this line.
Purchased to coordinate with the Professional "S" block set. Asian blade angle makes for the sharpest knife in the block. Straight edge great for slicing, dicing, mincing, and precision cutting of vegetables.
The Zwilling Pro “S” is a great traditional German knife collection. I like that it has a full bolster to protect my fingers from the blade. The high carbon stainless steel won’t tarnish over time and it’s constructed to be an extremely durable and sharp knife that will last for a long time. This is a great Santoku that has that Asian blade shape but German durability.
You can't go wrong with this Pro S santoku, ideal for chopping and mincing food. The hollow edge divets on the blade help to guide food up and off of the knife, keeping out of the way during those smaller tasks. The Pro S handle is extremely comfortable and overall the knife is perfectly weighted and balanced.
Great knife for a smaller hand or often a favorite of the ladies in the kitchen. The smaller bolster compared to that on a chef knife makes for a much ligher knife. Super sharp edge slices, dices and minces anything on your board.
