The Messermeister Oliva Elite 7" Kullenschliff Santoku, also known as a Japanese Chef's Knife, has a wide blade knife with an overall thinner spine and taper than a French or German style Chef's Knife. The thin taper (or blade thickness) is lengthened to give it maximum precision when slicing. The word Santoku translates as "3 good things," which means it is versatile like a Chef's Knife and cuts vegetables, fish and meat. Each knife handle in the Oliva Elite knife line is unique and made from beautiful, Italian olive wood. No two handles are the identical, making these knives truly boutique and one-of-a-kind.
