YOUR NEW FAVORITE ALL-PURPOSE KNIFE.

The santoku has long been the Japanese equivalent of a chef’s knife; it gained
attention in America when Rachael Ray talked it up on national television as her
favorite all-purpose knife. Compared with a classic 8-inch chef’s knife, the
santoku is typically shorter and has a thinner blade, a stubbier tip, and a
straighter edge. The style was developed for postwar Japanese home cooks as a
more versatile alternative to vegetable cleavers—santoku means “three virtues,”
which are described variously as “meat, fish, and vegetables” or “chopping,
slicing, and dicing.” We found a santoku knife that gives our favorite chef’s
knife a run for its money (and costs less than half the price of similar santoku
knives).

 * REVIEW
 * DETAILS & SHIPPING


MAC SUPERIOR SANTOKU 6 1/2"

WINNER - BEST BUY

Thanks to its sharp cutting edge and skinny spine, this knife produced
razor-thin slices and broke down a whole chicken and cut carrot matchsticks
“like butter.” The wooden handle felt a hair too thick and bulky to testers with
smaller hands, and its blade was on the shorter end of what we prefer.

HOW WE TESTED SANTOKU KNIVES

We bought 10 models, priced from $24.99 to $199.95, focusing on blades that were
at least 6 inches long, the size we previously found most useful. Some knife
experts claim that santokus are suited only for cutting softer vegetables and
boneless meat, not for thornier kitchen tasks such as breaking down bone-in
chicken and hard vegetables. So our question was: Are santoku knives a viable
alternative to chef’s knives, or are they in fact more specialized? To answer
this question, we put every model through our usual battery of chef’s knife
tests: mincing fresh herbs, dicing onions, butchering whole raw chickens, and
quartering unpeeled butternut squashes. We also threw a ringer into the
testing—our favorite chef’s knife, the Victorinox Swiss Army Fibrox Pro 8"
Chef’s Knife ($39.95)—for comparison. Then, to see if santokus add unique value
to a knife collection, we tacked on precision work: cutting carrot matchsticks
and slicing semifrozen strip steaks across the grain into slivers. Finally six
testers, including three self-described knife novices, chopped onions and rated
the knives, including how well each model performed and if it was comfortable
and easy to use.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

WINNING TRAITS

 * Slicing and precision cutting feels effortless
 * Thin spine helps blade easily slip through food
 * Wooden handle enables secure grip
 * Can be sharpened with electric knife sharpener

* OBJECTIVITY FIRST, LAST, AND ALWAYS.
