Product Description |
| Elegant satin-finish handles sculpted from 18/10 stainless steel distinguish Culinar cutlery from Wüsthof's other cutlery lines. Otherwise Culinar knives embody all the virtues of other Wüsthof knives that have earned the German manufacturer world renown. The principal parts of a Wüsthof knife--blade, bolster, and tang--are forged from a single piece of high-carbon stainless steel, and the blade is precisely tapered from bolster to tip and from back to hand-honed edge. Blades and beautifully formed bolsters are not as thick as some knives'. As a result, despite their heft, strength, and durability, Wüsthof knives are pleasingly delicate and marvelously balanced in action. This 7-inch santoku is a Japanese cook's (or chef's) knife--a low-tip style with a broad blade. Because the cutting edge is less curved, it provides less rocking action than a European-style cook's knife. However, for straight-down slicing and precise chopping it's superb. Alternating hollows on each side of the blade create air pockets, allowing slices to fall away cleanly. This knife should be hand washed. --Fred Brack |

 Nice knife! |

This is a very good quality knife. I currently have the J.A. Henckels four start collection, but I wanted to try the Wusthof's knife after hearing all the good things about it. Like J.A. Henckels' Twin Star collection, this knife has the total stainless look. But after comparing two brands of knives, all I can say is that I wish I bought Wusthof's knives instead.
This knife is really sharp and has a good feel to it. It cuts really well. The hollow edge keeps the vegetables/food from sticking to the sides, which also make this knife exceptional. None of J.A. Henckles' line has this special and exlusive feature. I might have to start upgrading my J.A. Henckels to Wusthof. This is definitly money worth spent, if you are into having good kichen stuff. |

| We bought this knife for our son. He has been helping in the kichen since he was three,and is training as a professional. He says this is the best knife he has ever used and is very easy to keep clean. |

This Wusthof Culinar Hollow Edge Santoku knife feels absolutely magical to use. It slices through anything I need it to as if it's going through hot butter. Smooth, efficient, a real work horse. Using this knife makes a person actually feel professional in the kitchen! Because of all the raves this knife has garnered from dinnerguests, we've given 5 of these as gifts to family members and close friends.
I have the 10" Culinar Chef's knife that is wonderful, but I don't even use it anymore since I purchased this Santoku.
I'm now looking for the 5" Hollow Edge Santoku to add to my collection. It's not easy to find.

| This is a great knife - it cuts beautifully and is very comfortable in your hand. It is well worth the money. |
A beauty in form and function, but will the handle slip?

I've owned this knife for several months and am pleased with it -- it certainly is good-looking. The santoku blade is great for chopping veggies -- I think the hollow (Granton) edge is well worth the small increase in price over a flat blade.
The only drawback to this knife -- as it is with competitors' steel-handle knives, is that most cooks will not feel as secure holding it, particular if your hands are a little slippery or greasy. It just feels as if it might slip. For that reason, I think the Wusthof Grand Prix version of this knife would be a slightly better choice. But hey, if you have a zillion-dollar kitchen and a zillion knives, this series is the prettiest to display that you'll find anywhere. |
