Wusthof Gourmet 5″ Santoku

<h2>5" SANTOKU, HOLLOW EDGE - 4188-7/14</h2>GOURMET laser-cut knives are crafted in the companys factory in Germany. Well-balanced and durable, GOURMET knives are made of high-carbon stainless steel. GOURMET knives feature a new handle design made of a highly durable synthetic material Polyoxymethylene (POM) which has a tighter molecular structure to resist fading and discoloration. The GOURMET 5" Hollow Edge Santoku Knife is designed with a thinner blade than the traditional chefs knife, at a 10 cutting edge, and gradually curves up at the very end providing a straighter edge. The hollow edge is crafted with evenly spaced vertical indentations, which create small air pockets between the blade and the food. These small air pockets gently push food off the blade and reduce friction and drag. This knife allows cooks to effortlessly prep a wide array of fresh produce, including starchy vegetables like potatoes, which tend to stick to a knifes blade.<strong>Product Highlights:</strong><ul><li>Comfortable and highly-durable polyoxymethylene (POM) handle with a traditional look and feel, stickered with our red Trident logo</li><li>Incredibly sharp and easily maintained, laser cut blade.</li><li>Tempered to 56 Rockwell</li></ul><p>SKU 4188-7/14</p>
