is the handle straight or curved? the photo looks like the 7" and not the 5"...

Yeah the pictures are screwed up on these listings. The J.A. Henckels International Forged Premio 5-Inch Santoku Hollow Edge is the item you are asking about. The "Premio" has the elegant curved handle with the nice metal butt. The boring straight handle you see in the thumbnail is the "Classic." I have a 5 inch Premio and I like the curved handle.

What is the height of the blade?

THe dimensions of this knife are: 5inch long blade and 1.25inch height. If you have extremely large hands you will not like the feel of this knife because it's got a smaller handle.

The forged Premio is made in China.

Does it come with a sheath?

No, it does not. It comes securely wrapped. No sheath. Would need to secure in a wood block or something else.
