Santoku is a complete knife for meat, fish and vegetables (Santoku = the three virtues). Knife with a large blade for general use, ideal for slicing, dicing and chopping. The wide blade offers good guidance along the joints of the fingers. Santoku's wider and rounded shape is a particularly suitable design for preparing vegetables, meat and fish. The Santoku knife is a popular knife and can be recommended as a multifunctional kitchen knife. Easy to hold handle, easy to balance! To preserve and protect the cutting quality of the blade, cutting on hard surfaces (glass, marble, ceramics, etc.) is not recommended. Use softer supports such as plastic or wood as often as possible. It is important to regularly sharpen the blade when dull and to choose suitable supports to prevent premature damage. Before storing for a long period of time, add a thin layer of vegetable oil to the blade, wrap in clean paper and store in a well-ventilated area.
