JA Henckels Professional S Santoku Knife – Hollow Edge Blade Length: 180 mm   Model: 31120-183   Made in Germany About J.A.Henckels: ZWILLING J.A. HENCKELS has been writing history since 1731. With first-class kitchen products, flatware and beauty instruments. A unique history of success based on quality, tradition, innovation, design and trust and characterised by millions of unforgettable experiences. Today products by ZWILLING J.A. HENCKELS are recognized the world over as the symbol for the highest possible quality and function.   Knife Description:   The Japanese version of the Chef’s knife, the Santoku is useful for straight chopping, mincing, and slicing of larger quantities of vegetables and meat. Cooks with smaller hands may prefer this 18 cm blade as the shorter length offers better control while cutting.   The width also provides a great platform for transporting chopped vegetables from cutting board to sauté pan. This version of the Santoku actually has a hollow edge or oval cut-outs along the blade. The benefit to this blade style is that cooks can cut paper-thin slices and individual slices won’t stick to the blade as the hollow or granton edge allows air between the blade and the item being cut, allowing for extra-thin cutting and slicing.   Twin Pro S knives are precision forged from a single piece of exclusive-formula, high-carbon, no-stain steel under the all-new Sigmaforge standard. As a result, Pro S knives have improved quality consistency, lasting sharpness, and perfect geometry.   Sigmaforge one-piece construction also provides high precision and improved stability of the blade and steel structure, thus improving cutting-edge retention for lasting sharpness.   In addition, Professional S knives use J.A. Henckels’s Friodur ice hardening for corrosion resistance, a process that also contributes to cutting-edge retention.   J.A. Henckels’s Pro S knives boast a comfortable, ergonomic three-rivet handle design that won’t wear against the hand and helps to provide control when doing any cutting task.   These durable Novodur handles are perfectly bonded to the full tang on each knife for stability and durability. The impeccably balanced super bolster provides weight and adds balance for safer and more professional cutting.   Knife Features: Sigmaforge one-piece precision-forged construction: Provides perfect geometry, high precision, and improved stability of the blade and steel structure, thus improving cutting-edge retention for lasting sharpness.
