  • Mercer Genesis 7-inch Granton Edge Santoku

    A santoku cuts mainly with a straight downward push, and its tall blade carries chopped vegetables to the pan. The Genesis 7-inch Santoku adds a granton edge, rows of hollows above the edge that help slices of potato, cucumber and onion release instead of sticking.It is forged, so it has more heft than a stamped santoku, and the Santoprene handle grips securely when wet. The nearly flat edge suits push cuts and fine slicing more than rocking.
    Santoku or Chef’s Knife?Choose the santoku for push cuts and vegetable-heavy cooking, or a chef’s knife such as the Genesis 8-inch if you rock-chop. The kitchen knife shapes guide compares the two. Learn More
