18 cm Hollow-Edge Blade

The blade of the Toledo 01536 Santoku knife is 18 cm long and made from Molybdenum Vanadium stainless steel.

Its hollow-edge design features small indentations along the blade that help reduce contact between food and the steel surface during cutting. This feature is particularly useful when preparing ingredients such as potatoes, vegetables, fruit and other moist foods that can tend to stick to a smooth blade.

The 18 cm blade provides enough cutting surface to work comfortably with different ingredients while maintaining excellent control and handling.

Forged Construction — Toledo Series

The 3 Claveles Santoku 01536 belongs to the Toledo Series, a range known for its forged kitchen knives.

Forged construction provides a solid, robust feel, making this Santoku knife well suited to regular use in both professional and home kitchens.

Its design combines the traditional character of the Toledo Series with the versatile Japanese Santoku format, offering an alternative to conventional chef and cook's knives.

Ergonomic Black POM Handle

The handle is made from black POM, a durable material well suited to regular kitchen use.

Its ergonomic design provides a comfortable and stable grip, helping to improve control during cutting and food preparation.

The combination of a forged blade and POM handle creates a well-balanced kitchen knife for everyday use in both professional and domestic kitchens.

What Is an 18 cm Santoku Knife Used For?

A Santoku knife is a particularly versatile Japanese kitchen knife designed for a wide range of food preparation tasks, including:

• Cutting vegetables and produce.

• Chopping ingredients.

• Slicing fruit.

• Preparing meat and fish.

• Making precise, uniform cuts.

• Working with ingredients of different sizes.

The 18 cm blade provides a practical balance between cutting capacity and control, making it suitable as an everyday all-purpose kitchen knife.

What Does Hollow Edge Mean?

A hollow-edge blade features small indentations along one side of the blade. These indentations reduce the contact area between the food and the steel surface.

When cutting ingredients that tend to stick to a knife, the hollow-edge design can help the pieces release more easily from the blade.

For this reason, hollow-edge Santoku knives are particularly practical for regularly preparing vegetables, fruit and other ingredients.

A chef's knife, on the other hand, typically has a longer blade and a profile suited to a wider range of cutting techniques.

Within the Toledo Series, different knife sizes and formats can be combined to provide a suitable tool for different food preparation tasks.
