We use knives for food-prep more than any other purpose. For that reason I decided to review my favorite kitchen knife – a Wusthof Classic Santoku. The Japanese-styled blade has a few advantages over the traditional French-styled chef’s knife.

I wouldnt get it for being afraid to damage it, the stupid cleaning lady dropped my santokou and the tip bent
you may not be a chef or an expert but you obviously work for cutco like my best friend did for a while … cutco sucks ass. there’s a reason wusthof dreizack is the most famous and respected knife manufacturer in the western world..
mmm….I’m not a chef, nor an expert….But i do know about knives, and CUTCO Santoku knives are the best. You should try them.
I have the same excact knife… I love it….I am a cook, and I find that this is too my favorite knife
omg very jealous, i really want this knife
I’m jealous! I want that knife!
santoku knives are great, but wait until you see the high end presentation knives from japan.literally too wonderful for the kitchen(?) thought I would upgrade mine and I purchaced a shun kaji 7″ santoku. after a month of having it I still haven’t used it, just too nice looking to submit to kitchen duty.
It’s just a 5 incher from their , I think, Forged Synergy line.
I actually want the Henckels santoku for my own collection and use. Which model do you have?
I got a henckels santoku and I was really impressed with its weight and control. Someday I’ll have to upgrade to this or a Shun perhaps. Nice vid!
Very informative. Makes me want to cook!
Out of the wood-processing outback, and into the kitchen…. excellent review of an overlooked category of knives!
