The Santoku knife is a general-purpose knife whose name means "three virtues" in Japanese, as it can be used for meat, fish, and vegetables. Its tip is more curved than a chef's knife, while the length of its blade is ideal for fine cutting, even on a kitchen counter, where space is usually more limited. Its light weight makes it comfortable and easy to use, even after long periods of use.
