Wüsthof Classic Hollow-Edge Chai Dao, 7"

A versatile knife that combines the smaller size and maneuverability of a santoku with the cutting power of a chef’s knife, the chai dao is a multi-purpose workhorse that’s perfect for chopping, dicing, slicing and more.

Thanks to a curved belly, the chai dao is ideal for rocking over herbs while mincing, and the wide, broad blade is great for smashing cloves of garlic or transferring foods from cutting board to pot. A hollow-ground edge helps prevent food from sticking.

Precision forged from a single piece of specially tempered high-carbon steel, each Wüsthof Classic knife is engineered for outstanding strength and exceptional performance. Producers of some of the finest cutlery in the world for close to two centuries, Wüsthof pairs impeccable craftsmanship with modern materials and techniques to create knives fit for both amateur enthusiasts and professional chefs.
