Santoku / All Purpose

Santoku Knives are the Japanese version of a home cook's all-purpose knife. Literally translating to "three virtues" they are kitchen knives designed to cut vegetables, meat and fish. Characterized by shorter length, curved profile and a higher center of gravity from the cutting board, the Santoku is the best Japanese chef knife a home kitchen can have if you are looking for a smaller blade that can do it all.
