Q: What Rockwell hardness is the steel used in the knives

Hi, The Syracuse range of knives have a Rockwell Hardness of between RC52-RC54. This means that they are hard enough to retain a good blade edge, but not too hard to make them brittle. The alloy mix giving them this Rockwell result has been carefully chosen to give a good balance between blade retention, sturdiness and general resistance to prolonged kitchen use, making the Syracuse range a fantastic choice for home or commercial use.

Q: Is it serrated on both sides of the cutting edge i.e. ground on both sides? This is important for accurate slicing and for left/right handed users.

It’s a straight edge blade, not serrated, I think it would cut left and right handed. It sharpens well with Taylor’s eye witness knife sharpener.

Q: What is the full length of the cook's knife

If the cook`s knife is the deep-bladed one, it`s 13cm/5''. l thought it was going to be a big knife; it`s relatively dinky, but very good.

Q: How many grams is the Santoku and are the blade and handle balanced? Also, how well do the scallops prevent veg sticking to the blade?

I believe the word balance is usually used in the common sense when discussing knives. It might well be used in an aesthetic sense also. In general, people talk about where the balance point of a knife is. For folders, the best balance point is usually regarded as the place on the handle where the index finger rests on the handle. Also, balance points at the guard are acceptable. I believe that the goal when balance is discussed is to have a knife that doesn't feel particularly heavy bladed or handled. However, when long-bladed knives have chopping as a primary use, one wants them to be blade heavy, with the balance point out near the "sweet spot" along the blade. With the blade heavy knife, less exertion is needed at the handle to chop. The extra weight of the blade does a lot of the work for you. For fighting knives, many wish to have the knife somewhat handle heavy. It is desirable to have the blade feel light, and very easy to maneuver. Many fighting knives have distal tapers to the blades. Because light weight equals speed, such knives may even have a tapered tang also, but still need to remain handle heavy. I may be completely at sea on this, but I believe that explains the primary concerns about balance in knives.
