J.A. Henckels Twin Cuisine 7-Inch Hollow-Edge Santoku Best Quality


This was my first twin cuisine knife and my first santoku.

I have to say that I'm very impressed with it.

PROS
-heavy (really helps when cutting)
-very good for mincing
-great for sushi but this thing cuts anything
-strong
-beautiful
-durable
-comfortable handle
-the weight makes it great for handling bigger jobs or for cutting firmer vegetables (well for me at least).


CONS
-the balance is nonstandard for me (the handle is heavy)....don't know if this is just because it's a santoku (are they all handle heavy?). Overall, not a big deal just takes a bit of getting used to.
-the handle has cracked on the top half (hairline but there) -- never been dropped or machine washed. I don't know if there's a warranty item on that, I'm going to check. If there isn't I'll probably wind up getting the PRO S line or another more traditional line (that's why it got dropped on star)

I've always handwashed this thing.
