I hate santoku style knives with a passion, at least the 'general use' ones
a french knife is a much better general use knife and whenever I have to use a cheap dinged up santoku at someone elses place or resteraunt I die a bit inside

that said, I prefer 'right tool for the right job' thinking, and this just happens to be a knife that happens to be the right tool for a lot of jobs that are hard to do.
it's thin, flexible, you can hold onto the opposite end with relative security.

it's not something everyone needs, but it's cheap, and CFIA approved since it has a sealed handle with no rivets or ridges.

it's actually kinda hard to find approved knives that are good since they all go for the wooden handle meme
