The kullenschliff (hollow ground) dimples on the blade face create air pockets that reduce food adhesion - vegetables and proteins release cleanly rather than sticking to the blade. The santoku profile handles meat, fish, and vegetables with equal confidence. The olive wood handle is warm, tactile, and improves with age.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCare \u0026amp; Maintenance\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHand wash only - never dishwasher\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDry immediately after washing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHone regularly before each use on a honing steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSharpen on a whetstone (1000\/3000 grit)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOccasionally condition the olive wood handle with food-safe mineral oil\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStore on a magnetic strip or in a knife block\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Hale Imports","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":29811037405262,"sku":"E6610-7K","price":310.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0261\/1819\/3230\/products\/E6610-7K.jpg?v=1675751061","url":"https:\/\/chefandaknife.com.au\/products\/messermeister-oliva-elite-santoku-178mm","provider":"Chef \u0026 a knife","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
