Lamson Fire Series Santoku Knife
Best versatile kitchen companion for home cooks who prefer chopping over rocking.
This American-made workhorse ditches the traditional rocking motion of a chef’s knife for a precise, flat-chopping efficiency. The Granton edge is a masterclass in preventing food drag, though you’ll sacrifice the versatility of a curved blade for this specialized, high-control performance.
