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.

Tips for Best Results

A few strokes on a steel before each use keep the edge aligned. The 1905 Series 10-inch regular cut steel matches this series, and our honing rod guide explains the technique. Hold any steady angle between 15 and 25 degrees.

Care

F. Dick says never to put its knives in the dishwasher. Wash by hand in warm water right after use, and dry the blade with a soft cloth.
