Wusthof 7” Grand Prix II Santoku
Global G-48 7” Santoku
Kershaw Shun Classic
I am also interested in a MAC MSK-65 Professional Series Santoku, but have not been able to locate one in the Louisville area to take a look at. I am reluctant to select a knife that I cannot handle prior to purchase.
They were all very nice and I am sure I would be happy with any one of them. I liked the feel of the Wusthof the best but the Global was not far behind. Of course, every one of these knives gets rave reviews from end users, which does not help my decision as to which one to purchase. I did find it interesting that many of the people who use Global have also used Wusthof and mentioned that they would never buy another Wusthof. They never gave specifics as to why. There was also some mention as to how much sharper the Global knives are than Wusthof.
Having never used any of the above brand’s knives, I am interested in the feedback of anyone who has, professional or otherwise. Also, if I have overlooked another brand I should consider, please let me know.
Thanks for your help!
