BergHOFF Dina Codon Santoku Knife

The perforations and scalloped edges are designed to reduce surface contact between the blade and the food. This minimizes friction and prevents ingredients like potatoes or cucumbers from sticking to the knife, allowing for faster, smoother slicing.

While the stainless steel is corrosion-resistant, we strongly recommend hand washing this set. Dishwashers can be harsh on knife edges and handle materials, so hand washing is the best way to maintain the sharpness and longevity of your blades.

Stamped blades are cut directly from a large sheet of steel, making them generally lighter and more flexible than forged knives. This makes them excellent for everyday tasks like dicing and chopping where agility is more important than heavy-duty cleaving.

The handles are crafted from polypropylene and feature an ergonomic design intended to fit naturally in your hand. This provides a secure, comfortable grip that helps reduce fatigue during longer food preparation sessions.

The stainless steel is corrosion-resistant, but it is not stain-proof. To keep the blades in top condition, dry them immediately after washing rather than letting them air dry, and avoid storing them loose in a drawer where they might dull against other utensils.
