Miyabi Evolution Hollow-Edge Santoku, 5.5"

A hollow-edge santoku knife is a versatile choice for everyday prep, especially chopping, slicing and mincing. It is also handy for tasks like smashing garlic cloves and working through lots of produce when you want a controllable, all-purpose blade.

This hollow-edge santoku knife is designed with an ergonomic handle, precision balance and a rounded spine. Together, those details help it feel steady in hand and comfortable during longer prep sessions.

The hollow-edge santoku knife is made with steel that is processed to help hold a keen edge, but like any kitchen knife it will still need routine maintenance. Follow the care and sharpening guidance that comes with your knife and store it in a way that protects the edge between uses.

Choose a santoku when you want a compact, nimble feel for lots of straight-down chopping and quick ingredient prep. If you often do rocking cuts or want a longer blade for bigger items, a chef's knife may feel more natural.

Hollow-edge is the blade style featured on this santoku. If you are comparing knife shapes and grinds, it is a helpful term to look for so you get the exact blade design you prefer.
