The Japanese-style blade shape, forged in Germany. The Santoku's wide, flat profile keeps more of the edge on the board through a chopping stroke, so herbs and vegetables get cut cleanly rather than half-crushed on the tail end of the cut. The taller blade also means your knuckles clear the board and you can scoop what you've cut straight off it. X50CrMoV15 steel at 56 HRC holds its edge through a long prep session, with the edge honed and polished rather than just ground. Forged and balanced so the weight sits between blade and handle, and the half bolster guards the fingers while leaving the full edge sharpenable. Handle and blade join without a gap, so nothing collects in the seam.
