The term santoku comes from the Japanese language and can be translated as "the 3 good things". It therefore refers to common kitchen tasks such as chopping, slicing and mincing. This is a good indication of all the tasks that can be accomplished with your santoku knife. It can often be likened to a chef's knife. However, this type of knife is distinguished by its broad, smooth-edged blade. The santoku knife is also distinguished by its pronounced tips and dimples. These allow air to circulate between the blade and the food, preventing the two from sticking together. Whether fish, meat, vegetables or fruit, all your ingredients will detach easily from the knife after use.
