The Dexter Russell 36004G 7' Santoku Knife is a versatile, commercial-grade kitchen tool designed to elevate your prep work. With a straight-edge blade and sheep's foot point, this 7-inch santoku knife excels at slicing, dicing, and mincing with precision. Unlike traditional chef's knives, its shorter length and less curved blade make it ideal for scooping chopped ingredients, saving time during high-volume prep. Made from DEXSTEEL™ high-carbon stainless steel, this knife is durable, corrosion-resistant, and built to withstand the demands of professional kitchens. The ergonomic handle, crafted from Santoprene® and polypropylene, ensures a comfortable grip while being easier to clean than wooden alternatives—a must for busy restaurant environments. Whether you're chopping onions, slicing vegetables, or mincing herbs, this santoku knife delivers consistent performance and reliability. Its stamped construction may be less expensive than forged knives, but it offers excellent sharpness retention and durability, making it a cost-effective choice for professional chefs and restaurant kitchens.
