The Santoku is an Asian-inspired chef's knife that many cooks have added to their kitchen favorites. A knife of many talents, a santoku easily handles all the basic kitchen cutting tasks and is very easy to maneuver. There's just enough belly curve to enable rocking cuts, making the santoku even more versatile. As easy to use as a chef's knife, the santoku is especially well suited to a down-and-forward cutting motion (push cut). In Japanese, "Kazahana" means "Snow that flickers like petals dancing in a clear sky," much like the finish on its beautiful satin finish blade.
