The Kai Wasabi Santoku works well on just about anything you need to cut in the kitchen, from fruits and vegetables to meats, poultry and fish. With its slightly shorter blade, downturned tip, and high handle position, the santoku is not only versatile, but can be less intimidating than a long, pointy chef’s knife. It excels at push cuts due to its somewhat flatter edge, yet there’s enough curve to enable efficient mincing cuts, too.
