This Santoku knife has a curved blade designed for rocking and is ideal for chopping vegetables, mincing fresh herbs, slicing meats and more. It excels for both Western rocking cuts and Asian chop cuts. The santoku is an all purpose knife: perfect for cutting and slicing fruits, vegetables, meat, poultry, and cheese. Indentions on the blade create a barrier between food and steel, helping to prevent food from sticking to the blade. The Western style handle is easy to hold and encourages fatigue-free cutting. Miyabi Evolution knives merge Japanese craftsmanship and German engineering.
