Santoku Knives A santoku knife is a Japanese version of a chef knife. The knife has more steel at the tip of the blade and a flatter belly and usually no bolster. The knife is not rocked like a chef knife. Most people use more of a chopping motion instead of a rocking motion when cutting various types of food. Like any good knife a santoku should not be dish washed or kept in a drawer. Proper care will allow for years of enjoyment. We have a huge selection of santoku knives which make a great gift.
