This little santoku can rock like a chef's knife or chop like a traditional flat edge santoku.  The small Asian edge angle makes it razor sharp, even sharper than the chef knife.  The dimples help keep food sticking to your blade.  This is a perfect knife for smaller vegetables and fruit, as well as perfect for the person who feels a 7 or 8" blade is simply too much to handle.
