Amazon.com Review:
Tough polypropylene handles with full, visible tangs and thetraditional three rivets distinguish Classic knives from Wüsthof'sother cutlery lines. Otherwise Classic knives are identical to otherWüsthof knives, embodying all the virtues that have earned theGerman manufacturer world renown. The principal parts of a Wüsthofknife--blade, bolster, and tang--are forged from a single piece ofhigh-carbon stainless steel, and the blade is precisely tapered frombolster to tip and from back to hand-honed edge. The blades andbeautifully formed bolsters are not as thick as on some knives. As aresult, despite their heft, strength, and durability, Wüsthofknives are pleasingly delicate and marvelously balanced in action.
This 7-inch santoku is a Japanese cook's (or chef's) knife, featuring alow-tip style with a broad blade. The cutting edge is minimally curved,so it provides less rocking action than a European-style cook's knife.For straight-down slicing and precise chopping, however, it's superb.Alternating hollows on each side of the blade create air pockets,allowing slices to fall away cleanly. This knife should be hand washed.--Fred Brack

- The BEST of the best of the Santokus
Everything comes together perfectly in this Wusthof Classic Santoku, from the fit of the handle to its overall balance (it doesn't tip out of your hand when you relax your grip) to its ability to hold a great edge while being easy to resharpen. Having spent 20 years cooking Chinese, I've used every major brand and variant, and the top two really stand out for good reason:
-- (1) Wusthof Classic Hollow-Ground Santoku (balance, fit, quality steel, tested design, a tough knife)

This knife does the work of many different knives, including a meat cleaver.It is a sturdy compliment to other Wusthof knives that we have.They all have been good and hold their sharpness well.
