Very Sharp
This is my first Asian style knife, and not my last. Love the hollow edge which prevents food from sticking. The angle on this knife is more acute than a traditional chef knife which makes it a lot sharper. The half bolster makes sharpening and honing a breeze, and also allows for a larger cutting surface. It is dishwasher safe which is a definite bonus, and the German steel is stain resistant and extremely durable. The full tang adds weight to the knife which is sometimes absent in a Japanese made Santuko. Has everything I was looking for in my everyday knife!

My favorite knife
I use a 7-inch santoku almost exclusively. I cut a lot of vegetables and prep a lot of chicken, fish and seafood, and this shape and size handles it all easily. From butternut squash to prawns, I can get almost everything done with this knife. This handsome line of Forged Premio knives is forged from German steel and made to very exacting standards. The fine edge blades made from high quality stainless steel can take and hold an edge ensuring years and years of enjoyable use. Hone them regularly. The full tang blade runs through the integrated bolster and triple riveted handle for maximum stability and durability.
Dishwasher safe, but I always hand wash my knives. I like them to look new and dishwashing detergents are very hard on knives.

My Every Day, Everything Knife!
Our son, Vinnie, moved back in with us, due to the co-vid pandemic. He was a chef in Sacramento and the restaurant closed. He brought his knives along with him back to our Wisconsin home, And I loved using this J.A. Henckels 7"knife! Vinnie has since moved into his own place. When I asked him if he was going to take his knife with him, "Hell, yes!" was his answer. So for Christmas, guess what he gave me? My very own 7" Santoku knife! The best knife from the best son a Mom could ask for!!!

Realized How Dull My Other Knives Actually Were!
The first time I used my new Santoku was to cut my turkey sandwich that was placed on a paper towel. After cutting the sandwich into four triangles, the paper towel beneath had also been beautifully cut! The edges of the sandwich were also crisp, not smooshed as they would be with my other knives. Never before has this happened with my sandwiches, AND I HAVE PREPARED MANY SANDWICHES in my time! Just can't get over how that paper towel had that perfect cut-out after slicing my food....

I like the smaller santoku sometimes, just feels very comfortable in my hand and I like the shorter blade for certain tasks. The santoku is one of my favorite knives and I use it as much as I use a chef knife. The santoku can be used on meat, poultry and vegetables and the grantons (hollow edge) keep the food from sticking to the blade. Great value on this santoku if you do not own one yet, you should!

A value brand,! A great knife!
This is a value brand knife, Forged Premio is durable, comfortable in my hand, a forged blade resilient to rusting and corrosion and sharp knife. With proper care, you'll enjoy this knife for life. Santoku is Asian style, perfect for chopping and slicing meat, vegetables and fruits. Hollow edge makes it more easier to separate steel and food, it is less messy and it is dishwasher safe.

This is a great Santoku knife! I love the shape of the handle, so comfortable and the blade hits the cutting board with a flat long area so you can cut piles of herbs so easily. I know tht it is perfect for chopping but until I tried a few different things I had no idea how versatile this style knife is. its a great deal on a forged knife in a profile I did not already have!

This is a nice value priced santoku that has a forged bolster so it feels sturdy and strong while chopping, mincing and slicing. The hollow air pockets on the edge are designed to help food release from the blade as you slice. Made from high quality stainless steel you will find this knife is corrosion resistant and retains a nice sharp cutting edge.

Bed Bath And Beyond has a "forged elite" knife which looks similar to this. Are they they same blade just a different handle? Also, what is the hardness of this bladfe?
The only difference between this style and Forged Elite is the handle. All HI knives are 55-58 HRC.

Does the 5" Santoku knife fit in one of the empty slots of the 14 piece forged premio knife block set?
Yes, this knife should fit that block.

What is the best way to sharpen this knife?
We recommend honing between uses with the steel/rod included in most sets. For more effective sharpening, we suggest using a handheld sharpener or stone as needed.

What is the difference between this knife (the J.A. Henckels Forged Premio 7" Hollow Edge Santoku Knife and the J.A. Henckels International Forged Synergy 7" Hollow Edge Santoku Knife. They are both the same price.
Both knives are very similar. They are both forged from the same steel and have an almost identical blade shape. The main difference is the handle. It really comes down to preference, whichever handle design you think would be more comfortable or suit your style better.
