Global 7-in. Santoku Knife

Global's Santoku knife is similar to the chef's knife in that it's used for many tasks: mincing herbs, chopping vegetables or slicing fruits. The blade on the Santoku knife is shaped to give you that rocking back-and-forth motion needed for such tasks. Loved by professional chefs, Global knives are an excellent choice for the serious home cook. The razor sharp blades are forged in Japan from a special stainless steel, which holds its edge longer than any other steel. Global knives are sharpened further up the edge of the blade than German-style knives, creating a straight edge - in fact two or three times more surface area is sharpened on a Global knife. Lightweight in your hand, the knives offer superior control and precision. Inspired by the crafting of ancient samurai swords, each knife is carefully weighted for perfect balance and comfort. The smooth contours and seamless construction prevent food and dirt particles from collecting on the knife. Gorgeous modern design includes a textured handle for a secure grip.
