The Wusthof Gourmet Hollow Edge Santoku Knife is designed with a thinner blade than the traditional Chef's Knife, at a 10° cutting edge. This Eastern-style knife is designed for balance and agility and features a hollow edge which brings extra efficiency and speed to chopping, slicing, and dicing. This tighter angle is ideal for slicing meat, fish and produce.

Wusthof Gourmet full-tang knives are precision stamped from a single piece of exclusive Wusthof high-carbon stainless steel. Manufactured from one piece of a special mixture of chrome, vanadium, molybdenum and stainless steel, precisely cut with the latest state of the art laser technology. The ABS polymer triple-riveted handle to the stainless steel tang provides excellent balance and maneuverability and is resistant to high heat and high impact for the ultimate in durability. Wusthof Gourmet knives are made in Solingen, Germany with a lifetime warranty.
