Santoku: One of the most common knives found in the Japanese household, the santoku can be used for many different prep tasks. The word santoku means three problems: slice, dice, or mince. This knife is truly a workhorse. Generally slightly shorter in length than a gyuto, they are quite handy for smaller work areas.
