Victorinox – 7″ Grand Matre Forged Santoku Knife – 7.7303.17G

For amateur cooks and professional chefs alike, the Grand Matre collection is all about balance. Each piece in this widely-sought range is of a full-tang construction, uniformly hardened and forged from a single piece. Because of this, the transition from blade to handle is sleekly seamless, with the latter ergonomically shaped for comfort even over sustained periods.

The Santoku is the Japanese take on the general purpose kitchen knife. It excels at slicing, dicing and mincing; but its biggest talent is being multitalented and its true specialty is doing everything well. With its special shape and excellent balance, you’ll find the Santoku to be a true all-rounder that’s a joy to use day in and day out. And with a forged blade, it is, quite simply, one of the most brilliant knives you’ll ever hold in your hand. The triple-rivet handle is ergonomically designed to provide optimum weight, balance, and comfort while the plastic over molded (POM) handle will hold its shape and not crack or separate from the blade.
