Description:

Santoku knives are the Japanese equivalent of the chef knife, ideal for a wide range of kitchen tasks. 'Santoku' stands for the three functions the knife performs best: slicing, mincing & chopping. The blade's top edge aligns with the handle's top to ensure excellent balance. Most of Dexter Russell's Santoku knives come with a duo-edge blade, making cutting a breeze. Compared to traditional chef knives, Santoku blades are shorter, lighter, thinner & more durable. While a Western chef knife typically cuts in a downward motion followed by a rocking tip, the Santoku relies more on a single downward slice from heel to tip. The iCut-PRO series is favored by professional chefs & culinary students seeking cost-effective quality. Crafted from forged German stainless steel, this knife offers superior cutting control & balance. The stainless steel blade maintains a sharp edge, requiring infrequent re-sharpening. The ergonomic Santoprene handle ensures a non-slip grip, even when wet. All in all, these knives are ideal for professionals who work with knives for extended periods. Imported for top-tier quality, the blade measures seven inches, and the handle four-and-a-half inches, resulting in an eleven-and-a-half-inch total length.
