Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of OXO Good Grips Professional 4-Inch Mini Santoku Knife

Customer Review: Perfect Knife ... Sadly, Not Quite
Summary: 4 Stars

I love this knife. It is the perfect size for cutting vegetables which it does beautifully. I use a rocking motion and this knife rocks (no pun intended) nicely. I especially like the way the grip is shaped to conform to my hand, and its heft.

Now that I see how nice this one is, I am going to order the 6-1/2 inch version: http://www.amazon.com/Oxo-Grips-Professional-2-Inch-Santoku/dp/B000A13OES/ref=sr_1_13?ie=UTF8&s=home-garden&qid=1242591257&sr=1-13

I originally rated this knife with * * * * * (5 stars) but sadly must lower my rating. Since writing my review, I purchased the 6-1/2" knife and am happy with it so far. I also purchased second 4-Inch Mini Santoku Knife because I was so pleased with how the first one I ordered performed.

Sadly, one of the 4-inch knives' blade snapped and broke into two pieces while I was using it.

Customer Review: Good Knife at a Decent Price
Summary: 4 Stars

This knife is adorably sized. I bought a small santoku because I have a small kitchen and didn't want to invest the money or space in getting a "real" santoku knife. It's also lighter than I thought it would be. I've used it a couple of times and I don't think it's that sharp - I have an OXO Good Grips parer knife that slices through the same fruits and vegetables quite a bit easier. With a little bit of sharpening this should be a good knife - but I might just invest in a "real" santoku knife too.

Customer Review: Great knife for the right price
Summary: 4 Stars

I purchased this knife based on the reviews and I have not been disappointed. It quickly replaced my other knives and is my #1 go to knife. It is very sharp and the grip handle is perfect. In all honesty, I have purchased expensive knives in the past and they have not lived up to their reputation.

Customer Review: A very good knife for the money
Summary: 4 Stars

While it could easily be a lot sharper the handle is just great and the price is just about perfect. This is my first Oxo knife, but it sure won't be my last. My favorite knife is a 7" Shun Santoku, but you have to look at value for the money and that's where this knife has very few peers.
