Global Sai 7.5" Santoku Knife

The Global Sai 7.5" Santoku Knife is a traditional Japanese design with a straighter edge and downward-curved spine, but it is made with a thinner core blade of advanced CHROMOVO 18 steel clad by two layers of SUS410 stainless steel. The thinner blade is beveled at a mere 12.5° bevel for an ultra-sharp and fine edge that absolutely races through prep work with effortless precision. The Santoku is a versatile shape that can perform a wide variety of tasks but is best used for precise, straight cuts and dices, and the gently curved edge makes very clean slices.
The Sai Series from Global is a the top-of-the-line collection of kitchen cutlery for the professional or serious home chef. The blades are individually hammered, ice-tempered and hardened to Rockwell C58° - C59°. The blade transitions smoothly and seamlessly into the ergonomically shaped stainless handle. A contoured thumb rest helps ensure grip and control and the hollowed handle is filled with sand to achieve a precise weight for the perfect balance. The Global Sai 7.5" Santoku Knife is made in Japan and backed by a manufacturer's lifetime warranty. Measures 13.25" l x 2" w x .8" h.
