7 Premier Forged Santoku Knife With Kullenschliff (Granton) Edge

Made from the very best German Steel our full-tang Premier Forged blades are polished and sharpened in our Massachusetts facilities. Handles of exotic imported hardwoods and acrylics are assembled to the blades with triple rivets and then the knives are processed and sharpened to perfection. The Santoku is a general-purpose kitchen knife similar to the chef knife. The blade of the Santoku is not as curved as a chef s knife resulting in more of a chopping motion instead of a rocking motion. It performs well at slicing dicing and mincing. A Kullenschliff (K) edge also known as a Granton- or Hollow-Edge is designed to create an air pocket between the food and the blade helping to prevent sticking. What is a�Santoku�knife?
