Want a knife that can handle 3 types of tasks while being lightweight and long-lasting? Try the Wusthof Epicure Santoku Knife, where Japanese innovation meets Western creation. This knife features a dimpled blade with air pockets to prevent friction and allow ingredients to easily fall off the knife's surface when in use. With a lightweight construction, this knife features a thinner blade ideal for slicing through boneless meats or a variety of vegetables. The knife also comes with a half-bolster to make it easier for you to sharpen the blade, while its wider curved handle is great for a comfortable grip even with prolonged usage. Sharpened to an ideal 15°, this blade also boasts enhanced precision for razor sharp cuts.
Coming from Wusthof's Epicure range, this knife embodies the efficiency and lightness you would find in a Japanese knife combined with the quality and safety of German knives to provide you with a high standard of function and performance. Forged from one piece of high-alloy X50CrMoV15 steel with an HRC of 58°, this knife guarantees the highest degree of initial sharpness and edge retention. Wusthof has also redesigned the bolster for the Epicure for an innovative geometry shape that ensures the weight of each knife is perfectly balanced with the ideal focal point.
