Zwilling Pro Rocking Santoku Knife

Summary

Our Zwilling Pro collection offers ultimate comfort, security and precision in the hand, thanks to a special arched bolster designed by architect Matteo Thun that promotes a perfect thumb grip. This multipurpose knife excels for both Western rocking cuts and Asian chop cuts. Its broad blade is also handy for transferring cut ingredients to a bowl or pan.

• All-purpose knife for chopping and slicing meat, fish and vegetables, with hollow-ground blade depressions to reduce friction and minimize sticking.
• Precision forged using Zwilling’s Sigmaforge process, resulting in an exceptionally hard yet flexible blade.
• Zwilling’s Friodur ice-hardening technique results in a harder, sharper blade that is corrosion resistant and highly elastic.
• Precise lasers are used to ensure each blade’s edge is at the optimal cutting angle for maximum sharpness.
• Arched bolster perfectly supports the thumb for ultimate comfort, safety and precise handling.
• Made in Germany by Zwilling J.A. Henckels, founded in 1731.

Use & Care

Use

• Always use caution when handling sharp objects.
• Avoid cutting on hard surfaces such as stone, metal or glass.
• It is not advisable to use any knife except a meat cleaver to cut through bone, as other blades can be easily damaged.

Care
