Zwilling J.A. Henckels Pro 5-Inch Hollow Edge Rocking Santoku Knife

The Zwilling J.A. Henckels Pro 5-Inch Hollow Edge Rocking Santoku Knife provides a professional style knife to help complete the ultimate kitchen knife set. Manufactured in Solingen, Germany, this knife features a special formula high carbon stainless steel construction for a long lasting and durable product. The patented SIGMAFORGE® process forges the knife from a single piece of steel while the FRIODUR® ice-hardening process ensures the blade stays sharp. The precision honed and laser controlled edge ensures ideal cutting angles for top performance while the ergonomic polymer handle offers a comfortable grip with good balance and the classic three rivet appearance. Zwilling® Pro improves upon the top selling knife series from Zwilling J.A. Henckels. The knives are made from a proprietary German steel that has been perfected for more than 280 years and are hand finished by the most skilled artisans. The laser controlled edge is incredibly sharp as the ice-hardening technique creates a sharper blade that won't chip or stain. With an exceptional 57 Rockwell Hardness for superior edge retention and an edge angle of 10°, each Zwilling® Pro knife is extremely sturdy, balanced, and flexible for top performance and smooth control. 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.
