The Knife

Originally made for preparing Japanese dishes, the santoku knife has long since found its way into international kitchens. A Santoku knife is ideal for preparing wok dishes and wafer-thin sushi. It cuts and chops meat, fish, vegetables and herbs with ease, although it was designed solely for pressure cutting and not for weighing. 

In addition to the enormous sharpness of a santoku knife, its special shape is characteristic. Unlike European models, the blade is wider than the handle, so your fingers have more space when cutting. In addition, a santoku knife is often lighter than its comparably sized European relatives.
