Global Classic Hollow-Ground Santoku Knife, 5"

Global's award-winning knives are made to the exacting standards of Japanese professional chefs. A versatile knife for chopping and slicing, the santoku combines the benefits of a cleaver and a chef's knife. Indentations on the blade edge reduce drag and minimize sticking.

• Stamped blade is made of exceptionally hard Cromova 18 high-carbon stainless steel, ice tempered and hardened to resist corrosion.
• Prominent 1/4" edge is visible to the naked eye and ground straight to a point rather than beveled resulting in impressive sharpness and edge retention.
• Hollow-ground indentations along the blade increase efficiency and decrease sticking.
• Stainless-steel handle is seamlessly constructed and textured for a good grip.
• Crafted to professional standards, this knife is lightweight yet perfectly balanced.
