Wusthof Gourmet Hollow Edge Santoku Knife
The Wusthof Gourmet Hollow Edge Santoku Knife is a true work of art from one of the worlds premiere blade manufacturers. The Hollow Edge Santoku is a tall blade of high-carbon steel which is triple-riveted onto an ergonomic handle for a nearly effortless cutting experience. The gentle scallops along the blade aren't just for show either, these special indentations reduce the drag on the blade during cutting, reducing the amount of work that you have to do and preventing ingredients from sticking to the blade during cutting. The tall blade makes it easy to chop and transfer food, and the dishwasher-safe design makes sure that cleaning is never a chore.
