The santoku is a favorite for everyday vegetable prep, and this Pro Series 7" makes quick work of it. Its flatter edge suits straight up-and-down chopping, so dicing onions, slicing potatoes, and mincing herbs feels fast and controlled. Kullenschliff, the hollow scallops along the blade, help slices fall away instead of sticking.
X50 German stainless steel, a satin slackbelt flat grind, a 15-degree edge, and 56 HRC hardness give it a keen edge that is easy to keep up, and the PolyFibre handle is comfortable for long prep sessions. Knife for Life warranty.
A few strokes on the steel and it's razor sharp again.
