This Farberware 7-Inch Santoku Knife combines the features of a chef’s knife and cleaver. The Santoku knife has indentations above the blade edge to help reduce food such as vegetables from sticking to the knife. The blade is expertly-crafted from high-carbon stainless steel for strength and durability. It also includes a sheath, allowing it to be safely stored in a drawer. Hand wash with warm water and a mild detergent; rinse and dry immediately.
