The Wusthof Classic Chef's Knife, 20 cm (8") with new Granton edge, is a great all-around kitchen knife for home or professional use. This shape is the most essential of all knives used in the kitchen. 8-inch length is ideal for small spaces or smaller hands. the "granton" edge (scalloped hollows) on the blade help prevent items like potatoes from sticking to the blade, allowing paper-thin slicing. Precision forged from a single blank of steel with bolster and full tang. Full bolster/finger guard for safety and protection. Most any kitchen cutting, slicing and chopping is easily accomplished with this perfectly balanced tool featuring a comfortable and nearly indestructible grip and razor-sharp hardened stainless steel edge. German forged steel quality for a lifetime of use!

And in case you're wondering, yes, the divots (hollows) are on both sides of the blade.
