Customer Review: Great Knife, great price
Summary: 5 Stars
I have been using a typical chef's nice since starting my career in the kitchen and have an AMAZING case of carpal tunnel sydrome/ RSI as a result. I was recommended a Santoku knife as a change and the difference is UNBELIEVEABLE. Yes, you cannot "rock" with a Santoku or break bones, but a cleaver comes in handy for bones and I could NEVER get the razor-thin slices I can get with this nice little baby!
I have never been a fan of rocking and have taught all my fellow chefs to do what feels right for them ... and they do not rock their knives, either ... and if any handles crack, that is why Henckels guarantees EVERYTHING for life (www.zwilling.coM for an FYI if you read the review about me where he said he only uses it for back up now that he has a cracked handle).
I would highly recommend this knife ... the divots in the Wustof are nice, but jusdt a fancy addictive ... that is what a bench/dough scraper if for.
Buy this knife and you will be ecstatic ... I am going to buy them as gifts for everyone I know for thei b-days this year!
Description of Henckels Twin Gourmet 7-Inch Santoku Knife
Many chefs are choosing the santoku over the chef?s knife as their primary chopping knife. Traditionally used by Japanese chefs, the santoku chops and slices with a straight rather than a rocking motion and offers the benefits of a cleaver with the manageability of a lighter knife. As part of Henckels?s Gourmet series of knives, this santoku has a stamped, high-carbon stainless-steel blade that is laser-sharpened for a longer-lasting edge and put through the Friodur ice-hardening process for additional strength. From blade tip to tang, the knife is composed of a single piece of metal for sturdiness and is tightly secured to the hygienic polypropylene handle with three rivets. Henckels Gourmet knives are covered under a lifetime warranty. --Cristina VaamondeAsian Knives
