Cookie dough? Cookie dough? You display the use of a santoku with cookie dough? I suppose it's all that dull knife could cut. Poor tomato.

@guiltybystander77 No kidding. I own a $150 Shun Premier Santoku--I wanted VG-10 steel, something absolutely rust proof and hard as carbon steel, and I paid for it--and that damn thing you can't tell if it's cutting. It passes straight through a green pepper like air. A properly honed Victorinox for $40 should do basically the same thing, if it has a 15 degree bevel (mine is double bevel 16 degree). I'm getting a Nakiri, though I kind of want an Usuba (chisel grind).

like you said, it all depends on the make and model....
You can buy a good Wusthof for 100 $ or other german knives for up to over 1000 $
Thick, thin... Santoku, european chef knife.... 8", 9" , 10" or whatever, it's up to your personal preferences...
btw. that doesn't change the fact that that knife in this video was duller than dull...

so we have something in common?

depends on the knife and personal preferences...

Hi,
in germany we say, that knife is so dull, you can sit on the edge and ride to Rome on it!
And a regular Chef knife is thinner than a Santoku....
