When it comes to finely chopping fresh herbs, cutting fish, or slicing vegetables, the WÜSTHOF Amici Hollow Edge Santoku Knife is the versatile knife you’re looking for. This Japanese-inspired chef’s knife is designed for precision, control, and effortless cutting.

Unique within the Amici series, this knife features a lighter half bolster, providing finger protection while allowing greater manoeuvrability for detailed knifework. The slimmer Santoku blade is ideal for fine cuts and paper-thin slicing.

The hollow edge creates small air pockets that reduce friction and prevent thin or soft slices from sticking to the blade. Finished with a custom-grained Calabrian olive wood handle, this knife offers a naturally water-repellent, antibacterial grip that fits comfortably in hands of any size.

Care Instructions

A sharp knife is a safe knife. Maintain the edge of your knives using a honing steel or other honing device to help keep a refined edge between uses.

When your knives begin to feel dull or blunt, use a sharpening tool to restore the blade and keep it ready for food preparation.
