Santoku means “three virtues,” and this knife was designed to excellently perform three common cutting needs in Japanese cooking: slicing, chopping and mincing. The blade is straight like a cleaver rather than slightly curved like a chef’s knife, its western equivalent. This straight edge means that the knife does not rock back and forth like a chef’s knife; rather the cutting motion is more up and down. The indentations on the sides of the blade create pockets of air that reduce friction when cutting. Its excellent balance stems from the proportional design of blade to handle, and the proportions of its width to weight.

High quality, high carbon Japanese stainless steel ensures that the forged blade of this Anolon® Advanced Cutlery resists rust and corrosion. The SureGrip® Santoprene® handle is comfortable to hold, and has an innovative, ergonomic design that provides a soft, sure, confident grip. Heat-treated and ice-hardened steel creates a stronger blade that holds its sharp edge longer. The counter-balanced endcap and thick bolster ensure superior balance for precision and control. The forged blade construction adds strength and durability.
