Wusthof Amici 7" Hollow Edge Santoku Knife

The Wusthof Amici Hollow Edge Santoku Knife is designed with a thinner blade than the traditional chef's knife, at a 10° cutting edge, and features a rounded edge. The hollow edge is crafted with evenly spaced vertical indentations, which create small air pockets between the blade and the food. These small air pockets gently push food off the blade and reduce friction and drag. This knife allows cooks to effortlessly prep a wide array of fresh produce, including starchy vegetables like potatoes, which tend to stick to a knife's blade.

Inspired by memories of family and friends gathering al fresco in the Italian countryside, Wusthof Amici celebrates a simpler life. It is a life connected to nature, love of good food, and affection for all we invite to the table. The sculpted forged blade is paired with a uniquely variegated olive wood handle. Amici brings together a gracious Mediterranean lifestyle and old-world craftsmanship, creating a soulful reminder to cherish life's precious moments. Each Wusthof Amici Knife is unique. The distinctive, striking grain of the Calabrian olive wood draws an individual pattern on each handle as no two are alike. Olive is a slow-growing tree that provides durable wood, naturally water-repellent and antibacterial. As far as possible it is finished by hand, combining functional qualities with a fascinating look. Together with the color-coordinated brass rivets, it is the ideal companion for this unique knife.
