Generally lighter and thinner than Western knives, Santoku knives also commonly feature scallops or indents on the sides of the blade to reduce friction to create a smoother cut. Ranging in sizes from 6-inches to 8-inches, a Japanese santoku knife is a great all-purpose knife - a must have for every cook's knife collection.
