Performer // Hollow Edge Santoku Knife // 7"

The quintessential knife for masters of good taste, WÜSTHOF Performer knives combine centuries of great craftsmanship from Solingen, Germany, with state-of-the-art manufacturing technology.

The Hollow Edge Santoku Knife is a powerful and versatile Japanese chef's knife. Whether rhythmically chopping herbs, vegetables, and fruit, or precisely slicing through meat and fish, the extremely sharp blade produces fine to wafer-thin cuts. As a chef's knife with a wide blade, it is a remarkably powerful tool which is inspiring and easy to use when preparing and plating.

Each Performer knife is forged from a single piece of high-carbon steel to ensure superior purity and durability. The Diamond-Like Carbon (DLC) coating increases the surface hardness of WÜSTHOF steel from 58 to a 104 Rockwell so it is virtually immune to adverse external effects and extremely resistant to heat. The coating also offers a water-repellent lotus effect so your blade stays clean and glides precisely and effortlessly through food.

The Hexagon Power Grip features a non-slip honeycomb structure that gives you a firm grip even under difficult working conditions for safety and precision. This glass fiber-reinforced polyamide handle is easy to care for and dishwasher safe.
