Quantum Santoku Knife 8″

The word “Santoku” translates to “three virtues” or “three uses,” referring to its proficiency in slicing, dicing, and chopping.

The blade is generally thinner, which aids in precise cutting and allows for swift, clean movements.

Features grantons (scalloped indentations) on the blade to prevent food from sticking during cutting.

Santoku’s versatility makes it a valuable tool for chefs who need a single knife capable of handling a wide range of tasks efficiently

Its shorter blade might offer more control for some users, especially when executing intricate cuts or when working in tight spaces.
