| How do you like your hollow Santoku knives?
Do those air pockets really work? food will not stick on blades when you cut them? |

| Thirtyall, I believe, as do others who are actually in the cooking professions, that this is a fad, pushed by that tsunami Rachel Ray. And that's not to say that I don't approve or her, she's actually a favorite of mine and I marvel at her talents, but sometimes she says weird - and unfortunately incorrect - things. She uses these Santoku-type knives, supposedly so that food won't adhere to the blade sides. I have one (it was a gift) and veggies stick anyway. Save your money, or try one of the inexpensive Victorinox knives as a best buy (reference in the April issue of The Atlantic for a review). |

| The grooves help when slicing. Not perfect, but helpful. Santokus also available without the grooves. I regard my 8" as one of my favorites more for its particular weight, feel, and balance than for the grooves. |

| I'm another fan, even though foods still stick. Maybe it's because I never had chef training, but for most things I find it easier to use than a chef's knife, or for that matter almost any other type of knife. |
