Experience confidence with each cut. The Henckels International CLASSIC 7 in. Hollow Edge Santoku Knife boasts a precision, fine-edge blade that is honed for long-lasting sharpness. This Santoku Japanese for “three virtues” excels at three cutting techniques: expertly mince garlic, slice cucumber and dice onions with this Asian all-rounder.
The hollow edge blade has small indentations, aka grantons, which prevent food from sticking while cutting. High-quality German stainless steel strengthens this durable, Spanish-made knife. With a seamless transition from blade to handle, the knife’s fully forged construction provides balance as the traditional triple-rivet handle encourages tireless cutting.

Super sharp out of the box, as expected. Feels great, balanced, light but heavy enough for really any kind of cut.

Great alternative to my chefs knife, It’s light weight and smaller handle is great for me. I use Santokus for cutting onions.

You’ll love chopping with a santoku style knife instead of a chef’s knife. The hollowed air pockets allow for vegetables to fall off the blade as you cut instead of sticking to the blade.

Phenomenal knife! Feels perfect in my hand, and cuts with ease and extreme precision!

This is a great knife if you want to use a different large blade for your everyday cooking. It’s one of my go to knives in the kitchen; it’s really great for chopping produce, and with the indention on the blade, food doesn’t stick to it as easily which is really convenient.

Classic is forged and made of German steel but made in Spain. You get a knife that’s as close to the Germany knives at a fraction of the cost. The classic santoku is a great addition to any set; it chops perfectly and the little dimples help sticky foods release from the blade.

I’ve had a set of Henckels Classic for more than 20 years. They have been terrific. They have made many meals and held their edge. This santoku is one of my favorites. It will chop any vegetables and the tip will cut around any kale stalk. Excellent knives!

The Classic line is one of my favorites. They are as close to the very top premium knives you can get without spending the premium price. This Santoku is great for chopping and vegetable prep work. The handle and steel feel higher in quality than most other knives in this price range.

Great Kinfe for chopping, slicing and dicing. Santokus are best for working with fruits and vegetables. Product easily slides off knife allowing continued use versus not having to stop and push the product off the blade. Good price for a sharp essential knife.

Purchased this knife to replace my Classic 7-inch knife. The handle had cracked on this otherwise perfect knife but could not find anyway to get replacement handles. I only use J.A. Henckels knives and this was the first one that had a handle crack.

I just received my first Henckels knife and I love it. It is very easy to use and cuts through meat and vegetables with ease. I was able to get very thin slices.

Iam new to specialty knives but this one feels like it will be a staple in my kitchen. love the flat cutting edge, It gives me plenty of contact with the cutting board. The little hollow outs help release potatoes, cucumbers and other moist food that usually sticks to the blade after slicing. I would recommend this new style knife to anyone that does a lot of vegetable cutting!
