Hi everyone i would like to know wich chef knife and santoku knife is better of course for a professional use

Depends largely on your style and hand size.

I have very large hands, and as such prefer this as my go-to knife: (without the obligatory fork) http://store.calphalon.com/calphalon-contemporary-cutlery-2-pc-carving-set/612054

It’s a full tang comfortable utility knife that does well as a paring, boning, and carving knife. And it holds an edge exceptionally well.

I also have a 7″ santoku knife i use for heavy chopping, as the light utility doesn’t have enough weight to be comfortable for that job.

Between these two knives (I actually have 2 of the utilitys) I very rarely use anything else. The calphalon knife is exceptionally well balanced, easily the best knife i’ve ever owned.
