Santoku Knives are a Japanese style chef's knife that features a straighter edge than Western chef's knives. 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.
