Description
This Wusthof 1040131317 Classic Santoku Knife has a black, triple-riveted handle. The blade measures 7″ (17 cm). It also has a hollow edge. The Santoku is the oriental version of the cook’s/chef’s knife, used for dicing, chopping, mincing, and quartering.
The offset handle keeps one’s knuckles from hitting the cutting surface. The hollow edge provides a very thin edge for a thinner, smoother slice.
Wusthof uses a single piece of chrome-molybdenum steel to forge the Wusthof 1040100120 Classic Cook’s Knife. Forging makes the metal harder so the knife stays sharp longer. This knife has a bolster (the thick metal section between the blade and the handle) which protects the fingers and gives the knife a solid, balanced feel and heft.
It also has a full tang. Specifically that means the forged metal extends to the end of the handle for maximum strength and balance.
