The **red Victorinox SwissClassic santoku with dimpled blade** is a versatile Japanese kitchen knife. The santoku is the Japanese version of the chef's knife. Just like a chef's knife, you also use a santoku to cut meat, fish and vegetables. The big difference between the two knives is in the blade shape, and the cutting technique that you use. When cutting with a chef's knife, you use a rocking motion. When cutting with a Santoku, you cut from back-top to bottom-front.

## Santoku with dimpled blade

This santoku has dimples in the blade. These ensure that there is air between the blade and the food you are cutting. The air acts as a kind of non-stick layer, so the food doesn't stick to the blade. \[We tested whether those dimples really make a difference\](/en/ct/granton-edge-on-a-kitchen-knife.htm).

## Victorinox SwissClassic handle

The knives in the Victorinox SwissClassic collection have a polyamide handle. This material is lightweight and provides excellent grip. Because of the slight curve in the handle, the knives also feel great in hand.

## Victorinox SwissClassic blade

The razor-sharp blade is made from stainless steel. The combination of this type of steel and the material used for the handle ensure that this knife is dishwasher safe! However, we still strongly recommend that you don't put kitchen knives in the dishwasher. The blades could come into contact with each other or with other metal objects, which will cause damage. Furthermore, the detergent used in the dishwasher is often too strong for kitchen knives. Want to keep enjoying these knives for as long as possible? Then we recommend washing them by hand.

## Victorinox SwissClassic

With its SwissClassic collection, Victorinox offers a wide range of indispensable kitchen knives for every occasion. There are Victorinox peeling knives, peelers, vegetable knives and pizza and steak knives in different sizes and colours. And they all offer the great price-quality ratio that we have come to expect from Victorinox.

General information

We always measure the blade height at the highest part of the blade.

Blade height

We always measure the blade length ourselves. This is the length of the blade from the tip to the front of the handle. This may deviate from the manufacturer's specification.

Blade length

value_handle_length

Measured from the tip of the blade to the back of the handle

Total length

We always weigh a product as bare as possible. Knives and axes always without their sheath, lights (if possible) without their battery. For knife sets we measure the entire weight. This may deviate from the manufacturer's specifications.

Weight

Dimensions & weight

value_steel_hardness

The hardness in Rockwell C for a knife is always according to the manufacturer's specifications. When a manufacturer specifies a value of 56-58HRC, for instance, we always note the highest value, i.e. 58HRC.

This concerns the type of edge [Want to learn more about a serrated versus a plain edge](/en/ct/pocket-knives-difference-plain-edge-serrated.htm)?

Type of edge

We measure the sharpening angle ourselves. This value is the angle per side.  So 20º means that the total angle of the edge is 40º. Please note that knives are almost always sharpened by hand, even in factories. This value is therefore only an indication of a single tool measured by us. You are always free to choose your own sharpening angle. [Learn more about sharpening angles](/en/ct/sharpening-angles-explained.htm).

Sharpening angle

In terms of grind we are talking about how the complete blade thickness extends into the edge. Want to learn more about grinds? [Read all about grinds on knives](/en/ct/knife-grinds.htm).

Way of sharpening

type_of_handle

value_total_sharpening_angle

This is the total sharpening angle, so the sharpening angles of both sides of the blade combined. For a knife with a one-sided grind this equals a single sharpening angle.
