The Kai PRO 7” Santoku Knife can do all the dicing, slicing, and mincing a chef’s knife can do, but it has a slightly shorter blade, making it lighter, more agile, and easier to maneuver. Instead of the deep curve you find on a chef’s knife that’s meant for rocking, the Santoku has a straight blade that’s designed for Asian-style chopping. This all-purpose knife can be an alternative to owning a chef’s knife, if you prefer using a Santoku, or it’ll be a great complement to your set that you reach for when you want to chop through carrots or make paper-thin slices of onion.

NSF-certified for use in commercial kitchens, Kai PRO knives are made of Japanese AUS6M high-carbon stainless steel and hand sharpened to a 16° edge on each side. Full-tang with a double-riveted handle, the PRO series knives are built to stand up to daily, professional use. The striking hammered blade finish is beautiful, but even more; it reduces drag and helps food release from the blade easily. With a limited lifetime warranty, you can count on the precision performance this Kai PRO knife will bring to your prep work.
