7" Forged Santoku Knife with Granton Edge, Each

Product Details

Renowned for their extremely sharp steel blades, Forschner by Victorinox of Switzerland has been producing superior quality commercial cutlery for over 100 years. Their hand forged knives are made from high carbon stainless steel, which holds and sharpens to a keen edge. Because each of these forged knives is so well-balanced, it reduces fatigue over long periods and has more of a natural feel during use. Each knife also features a triple-riveted poly handle, permanently bonded to the full tang and comfortable to use.

Favored by chefs around the world, the santoku knife is the perfect fit in any cooking environment, from the home kitchen to the executive chef's commercial kitchen. Japanese chefs use it for slicing sushi, sashimi, and other delicate meats. The ever-so-slightly curved edge makes precise slicing and straight chopping much easier than the curved edge of traditional French style chef knives, which favor more of a rocking motion when cutting. In addition, the Granton edge on this santoku creates small air pockets when slicing, enabling food to fall away from the sides of the blade rather than sticking to it, further improving its cutting ability.
