imarku · Kitchen & Grilling
A santoku is shorter and flatter than a chef's knife, which suits most home cooks better.
4.4 out of 5
A santoku's flatter edge and shorter blade suit a home cook better than a French chef's knife — less rocking, more control on a small board. High-carbon steel that takes a keen edge. It chips if he twists it; hand wash only.
