You can tell from the moment you hold the ZWILLING Pro 7-inch Rocking Santoku Knife in your hand that you are holding something that is well crafted and strong. I received this knife as a surprise Christmas gift and this has to be the best gift I've received in some time. Easy to clean, though you have to be careful with the blade, and easier to use. I cannot wait to add more ZWILLING products to my kitchen. [This review was collected as part of a promotion.]
