This all-purpose knife, just like the classic chef's knife is great for all kinds of cutting jobs in the kitchen.
The name Santoku means “three virtues" which is either said to mean the three types of foods it works well with—vegetables, proteins, and fruit—or for the three types of cutting techniques it is great for—slicing, dicing, and chopping. This particular Santoku knife is finished with a Granton edge on the blade that reduces friction so the blade glides through and releases the food more easily.
Blade Material: Japanese VG10 Steel Core Damascus Steel
