Details
The Performer 7" Santoku is Japan’s version of the European-style chef’s knife. Use it to cut meat, mince herbs, chop vegetables, or craft wafer-thin slices of fish. The wide, 7-inch blade is slimmer than a typical European chef’s knife. The extremely sharp, 20° angle of the cutting edge ensures uniquely frictionless knifework. The hollows along the blade’s edge allow small air pockets to form during slicing, minimizing sticking and maximizing efficiency. Perfectly balanced, the Santoku shows its strength in demanding tasks that require precision and versatility. Ultimate sharpness. Effortless glide. Inspired precision.
Performer knives are enhanced with a deep-black Diamond-Like Carbon (DLC) performance finish, which makes our blades uniquely strong and durable. This finish is heat-resistant, scratchproof, and resilient to damage. No matter the conditions, it sets new standards for frictionless slicing. The non-slip Hexagon-Power-Grip© design on the handles guarantees unmatched control with every cut. A full bolster (the forged thickening between the blade and the handle) further ensures perfect weight and balance.
For those who never compromise. WÜSTHOF Performer — the knife for the perfect cut.
