Santoku knives have a reputation for sharp edges and enhanced cutting performance, whether they are beveled or hollow ground.

Santoku knives have a reputation for sharp edges and enhanced cutting performance, whether they are beveled or hollow ground. These knives also feature a 'granton edge' relief pattern that helps to release food from the blade while also adding a unique design element.

Some of the main things that determine the price of a blade include the quality of the steel, the construction details, how the knife is assembled, and whether it has a full or partial tang.

Santoku manufactures many well built, affordable models, although most of their knives are more expensive. They also offer ceramic construction for customers who prefer it.

Santoku knifes stay sharp if they are stored and used in accordance with the manufacturer’ instructions. A sharpening steel can be used to touch up any dull edges. To restore their proper bevel knives should be professionally sharpened every so often.

Santoku knives, like most fine cutlery, should be hand washed instead of being placed in the dishwasher. It is also important to ensure that the knife is completely dry prior to being put away.
