Why the set
A flat edge for push-cutting
Wudy Kitchen
A stainless santoku knife with a wooden handle and a flat edge for push-cutting, in a fitted gift box.
A santoku is shorter than a chef knife and flatter along the edge, which is why it feels quicker on the board. You push straight down instead of rocking, and each stroke lands flat.
About 6" (15 cm) of blade covers vegetables, herbs and a chicken breast without reaching for a second knife. It arrives in a fitted box, so it can be given as it is, and the box keeps the edge covered if the knife lives in a drawer.
Run it over a honing rod once before first use, then hand-wash and dry it after each session.
Hand-wash the blade in warm water and dry it before putting it away. Oil the wooden handle when it looks dry. Hone between sessions rather than waiting for it to go dull.
