Wusthof Gourmet 7" Hollow Edge Santoku Knife 2-pack

Two-piece santoku set for everyday prep

This pair of Wüsthof Gourmet 7-inch hollow-edge santoku knives is built for slicing, dicing and mincing in a home or professional kitchen. Each blade is laser-cut from high-carbon stainless steel and precision-stamped rather than forged. The hollow edge creates small air pockets that help food release cleanly during repetitive cuts. Two identical knives let you keep one in use while the other is washed or reserved for a specific task.

Check your storage, care routine

The synthetic polyoxymethylene handle is dishwasher-safe, though hand washing preserves the edge longer. Blades are stamped, so they are thinner than forged alternatives and may flex slightly under heavy pressure. Ensure you have a honing steel or pull-through sharpener suited to stainless steel, and a knife block, magnetic strip or blade guards that accommodate a 7-inch blade. The full tang extends the full length of the handle for balance, but the knives arrive with a factory edge only.

Suits cooks who want matched.

Ideal for anyone who prefers the wide, flat profile of a santoku over a curved chef’s knife and wants a ready spare. Not suited for heavy cleaver work, bone chopping or frozen foods, which can chip the thinner stamped blade. Buyers who favour a forged bolster, a heavier feel or a single multi-purpose chef’s knife should look at other ranges.
