Product Description: A must-have knife for any worthy cook, Santoku is a Japanese word that refers to 'three virtues'. That's very appropriate since this very sharp, handy 7-inch knife is famous for its chopping, dicing and mincing abilities. A unique feature found on a Santoku is a special 'granton edge' release pattern on the blades that not only adds style, but helps to release thin slices and sticky food after slicing. It's easy to use and handle. Triple riveted, full tang handle Made in Germany Wusthof Lifetime Warranty BONUS - Comes with beautiful Bamboo Cutting Board ($20.00 value if purchased separately)

Rating: - Santoku Knife
This knife, alongside the Wusthof Chef's knife, has been among the staples in my kitchen for many years. I would not recommend sharpening this knife with the Wusthof sharpener, however. Treat the knife well well -- use a smooth ceramic polishing rod/steel -- and it should serve the owner well for many years.
Rating: - great knife
one of the best all around, multi purpose knives in the kitchen. works great as a gift to get somebody started on a nice wustof collection.
Rating: - Wusthof Classic Santoky Knife
I have purchased three of these knives; one as a gift and two for myself. Without question it is the best knife in my knife block. The shape the balance and the cut will keep it on my gift list for a long while.
Rating: - Cuttin' up!
I was a little disappointed when my new knife arrived. It's a beautiful tool but the little red Wusthof logo on the handle is just a peal off sticker instead of an embedded logo.

Now, I just luv "taters an' Onions" all pan fried in a big ol' iron skillet, But when it come to pan slicin' them taters, the knife didn't want to turn ... Read More
Rating: - Amazingly sharp knife
The Wusthof santoku is an amazingly sharp knife. It also has a slight curve that allows a rocking-cutting action. This knife is well balanced and comfortable to use. One of the general claims to fame of the santoku is that foods won't stick to the blade when slicing. I have not found this to be true. Still a dandy knife.
