A woman-owned company, Messermeister has handcrafted hot-drop, hammer-forged knives in the historic cutlery center of Solingen, Germany, for 40 years. The blades are made of a high-carbon alloy that resists stains and corrosion, and ground to an exceedingly sharp edge. Handles carved from olivewood feature distinctive grain patterns that make each one unique. This hollow-edge santoku has shallow oval-shaped depressions along the cutting edge that prevent food from sticking.
