Santoku knives are best known for their razor sharpness and granton (scalloped) edge that helps to release thin slices and sticky food after chopping, mincing or slicing. Specially constructed ebony PakkaWood handle guides fingers into proper position for both left- and right-handed chefs. You'll notice the difference the moment you pick it up.
