Description
Santoku “Vine”
This is a universal knife, an ideal general-purpose kitchen tool, inspired by Japanese santoku knives. It looks like a combination of a light cleaver and the classic chef’s knife. You can use it interchangeably with the second one.
Santoku’s blade is shorter than in the chef’s knife, which makes them a handy knife for beginner cooks or persons who feel intimidated by the size of the classic chef’s knife. It has a unique profile: thin blade with a straight cutting edge and the spine curving downward to the tip. Using up-and-down in a rapid motion while chopping with santoku is effective, but you need some practice to learn how to do it correctly.
This knife is perfect for preparing fish, meat and vegetables | slicing | chopping | mincing.
