Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of OXO Good Grips Professional 4-Inch Mini Santoku Knife
Customer Review: Finest Choice For A Small Santoku...
Summary: 5 Stars
I recently bought this knife along with some bigger, or longer Santokus. If you have never used a Santoku, I highly recommend them over any paring knife for smaller jobs, and the larger ones for just about anything else. Their design is perfect for either chopping, dicing, or doing just about anything else with your various herbs and veggies that comprises the greatest amount of work you do with a knife in any kitchen. And, the cleaver like design makes it a fairly efficient chopper for anything that requires that kind of muscle. The larger Santokus can cut any roast or piece of meet down to size.
At 4 inches, this Oxo model is just about the smallest Santoku you will find on Amazon. But size certainly hasn't come at the disadvantage of strength and quality. This knife blade is a thick as they come full tang design that holds a fine shaving worthy edge easily and quickly with just a hand held sharpener. And at a full 7/8 of an inch diameter, its handle is as big, round and solid as any I have ever felt. It gives the user of this knife absolute command over any job of slicing or chopping that you may require of it. The quality of this knife is so fine that you may find yourself using it for every job in the kitchen that you would need a knife for. I particularly like its 4 inch blade that is much more versatile than a 6 inch, or even the 5 inch model. If you do a lot of cooking with fresh ingredients that need slicing and dicing, than you already know the advantages of a knife that is just right in its design, length, and balance. This knife is superior in all three of those categories. The only thing I may mention as to recommending this knife is that if you are someone with very small hands, you may find the handle a little hard to grip, or comfy. It really is a very solid handle that most people with average to large hands will find a pleasure to use.
In conclusion, although their are many Santoku style knives being offered on Amazon in sets, this is the best one that I own that came alone. I have three other Santokus of different sizes, and this one is not only my favorite but most versatile as well. I highly recommend it for your very own gourmet kitchen...
