Crafted in the famed cutlery center of Solingen, Germany, Wüsthof's straight-edged santoku combines the duties of both a traditional chef's knife and cleaver and adds a strikingly modern white ergonomic handle. Deftly proportioned for precision tasks like mincing and paper-thin slicing, the blade features oval-shaped indentations along the cutting edge that prevent sticking and reduce friction. The white handle perfectly balances the knife to mitigate fatigue.

• Knife is precision forged from a single piece of sturdy high-carbon steel that resists stains and corrosion.
• Hand-honed high-carbon steel blade maintains a razor-sharp edge.
• Hollow-edge blade is ideal for slicing fresh produce, even starchy vegetables, without sticking.
• Wüsthof's Precision Edge Technology (PEtec) ensures a 20% sharper blade with twice the edge retention.
• Full tang is triple riveted to the handle for exceptional durability, balance and control.
• Ergonomic white POM handle resists fading and discoloration.
