Just as versatile as a traditional chef’s knife, the Santoku Knife is also known as a Japanese chef’s knife. The Petite Messer 5” Kullens Santoku, has a thin taper for maximum precision when slicing vegetables, fish and meat. The kullens are the semi-circular hollows on either side of the blade which reduce adhesion and ease the cutting and separation of meats, cheese and vegetables.

Good value, and I probably will buy one for a friend that has terrible knives.

The width is this knife- I have some mild arthritis in my hand, so the chunky oval/rectangular shape gives me more to grip, less to squeeze, if that makes sense. Blade is sharp and accurate and the overall light weight design just what I wanted.

A surprisingly good knife - very sharp with an easy to clean seamless handle. Have larger knives, have smaller knives, but the size of this series is not easy to find and is surprisingly convenient.
