ZWILLING Pro 5.5" Santoku Knife

This versatile Asian-style knife is perfect for small kitchen tasks. Its relatively straight blade from heel to tip is ideal for the “push cut,” a common cutting technique in Japanese cuisine. This compact santoku is perfect for dicing vegetables, finely chopping herbs, and slicing thin portions of meat or fish.

The ZWILLING Pro stands out with its unique curved bolster, which acts as a natural extension of the hand, supporting the professional pinch grip with the thumb and index finger on the blade for safe, comfortable cutting with reduced fatigue. The blade features a broad curve at the front for easy rocking motion typical of Western knives, while the straight back edge is ideal for the chopping motion of Japanese knives. The entire length of the blade is usable and can be sharpened from heel to tip.
