Santoku knife GS57 from Global with a fluted edge. It is used for fine slicing meats and vegetables. It is particularly suitable for slicing small quantities.
The air pockets created between the blade and food - stops vegetables and meat from "sticking" to the blade. Fine slicing requires much less effort with this style of blade. This is particularly noticeable when slicing denser winter vegetables.
Professional kitchen knives from the Japanese company Global are made from molybdenum/vanadium steel. The knife handle is perfectly balanced for cutting. The smooth construction of the knives eliminates sticking of food pieces or impurities.
