Product DescriptionThe Santoku knife has become widely recognized as a knife that cuts with the utmost precision and no effort is even required! Similar to a chef's knife in that it can complete many kitchen cutting tasks, the Forged Synergy Santoku boasts hollow edges; it has special indentations to ensure food slides easily away and helps prevent foods from sticking as you slice. It has a 7-in. high-carbon steel blade that's forged. Please handwash with mild dish soap.
What Others Say
Great knife
I purchased both the 5 and 7" knives at the same time. Though I use the 5" knife everyday the 7" is weighted prroperly. Using serrated style for sometime this flat edge is the better choice. Not being an expert at this, I believe all one needs is the 5,6 & 7" hollow edge and maybe the bread knife to have a complete kitchen arsenal.
And after reading about the fragile knife point I'm very pleased.
If the edges stay as they should I might end up with the full set.
Great price...Great product.
Great Knife
This knife is a good weight and is extremely sharp, in a word, flawless. Is there anything else you need from a review for a Henckels Santoku?
Excellent Value
Wonderful knife for it's price. Nowhere a professional one, but a perfect buy for inhome use.
The best money you'll spend
This knife is the best! Nicely weighted, comfortable to use, good grade stainless and very sleek. This one I'd recommend for any cook.
Only semi granton edge
This knife has grantons (hollow spots) ground on only one side of the blade -- the side that shows in the packaging. The flat side sticks like any non-granton blade. The blade is also a bit thick for a santoku, more like a 7-inch forged chefs knife.
