Santoku Knife
Santoku, meaning ‘three virtues’, also called "bunka bocho", is a multi-purpose knife.
Prioritized for vegetables and fish. These are generally flatter than gyuto and have a less pointy tip. Because they are flatter, the wrist is in a more natural position and the shoulder does not need to be raised as high.  Santoku knife is the most popular knife in most Japanese homes.
