F. Dick 1905 7-inch Granton Edge Santoku
Santoku means “three virtues” in Japanese, for slicing, dicing and mincing, and this 1905 santoku covers that everyday work on meat and vegetables. Its granton edge, a row of hollow scallops along the blade, keeps slices of potato and cucumber from sticking.A santoku has a thin blade, a flatter edge than a chef’s knife and a rounded tip, so it works best with a straight push or a forward slice. The scallops put small pockets of air between the blade and wet or starchy food, which lets each slice fall away instead of riding up the knife. The thin profile also makes it capable of decorative cuts.Cooks who prefer a rocking cut should look at the 1905 8-inch chef’s knife. A smaller granton blade is the Premier Plus 5.5-inch granton edge santoku, and the 1778 santoku offers a much harder edge. See our knife shapes guide for santoku and chef’s knife profiles.

F. Dick ErgoGrip 8.25-inch Granton Edge Breaking Knife
Fatty and moist cuts cling to a flat blade, and the hollow-ground ovals on this 8.25-inch breaking knife break that contact so the meat falls away. F. Dick calls the pattern Kullenschliff; in the United States it is known as a granton edge.The hollows create small air pockets between blade and meat. That reduces drag on a pork belly or a fat cap and keeps thin slices from sticking. The blade itself is the standard ErgoGrip breaking profile, narrow and curved upward to a point for long, smooth cuts through subprimals.Hogs, lamb and deer are well suited to the 8.25-inch length. A cutter can reach through a shoulder in one stroke and still control the tip along a seam. The hollows also help when slicing thin pieces of fatty pork.For beef, the 10-inch granton edge breaking knife adds length. The plain-edge 8.25-inch ErgoGrip breaking knife is simpler to hone and works well on lean cuts. The comparison table lists the ExpertGrip 2K versions as well. Learn More$33.15
