Description


These Shun Kanso Hollow Edge Santoku Knives are beautiful, Asian-inspired chef's knives that many cooks today have added to their kitchen favorites. There's just enough belly curve to enable rocking cuts, which just adds to the knife's versatility. Shun santoku knives are especially well suited to a down-and-forward cutting motion or push cut. Many cooks swear by their santoku for easy food preparation and top performance.

Shun Kanso is a design principle based on Zen philosophy meaning "simplicity," but simplicity that is achieved by eliminating the non-essential. Features high-performance steel, razor-sharp edge, perfect balance, and precision cutting control. The blade is constructed of Japanese AUS10A highly refined high-carbon vanadium stainless steel sharpened to a 16° cutting angle each side to cut cleanly and help preserve food's freshness and best taste, providing a razor-sharp edge that holds longer. The Heritage finish blade hides scratches and gives a rustic look that just improves with age. The handle is made of tagayasan wood, sometimes known as "iron sword wood." The full tang construction provides strength, balance, and easy cutting control. Handcrafted in Seki, Japan with a limited lifetime warranty.
