Specifications

Description

Product Description The Shun Classic 7-inch Santoku Knife is a multipurpose knife used for just about every cutting job in the kitchen. Slightly shorter than the standard chef's knife, this Japanese steel knife is easy to maneuver and works well as a fruit, protein and vegetable knife. As part of the pioneering Classic Series, the first Japanese cutlery line introduced to the United States, this knife combines traditional craftsmanship with modern innovation. Featuring a VG-MAX steel core and 68 layers of Damascus cladding, the Shun Santoku knife offers exceptional sharpness with a precise 16-degree edge. The D-shaped Pakkawood handle ensures a comfortable, secure grip for both left and right-handed users. Supported by free sharpening and honing. Handcrafted in Japan, the Shun Classic Santoku Knife embodies centuries of knife-making expertise and a commitment to superior craftsmanship. Amazon.com A member of the stylish Shun Classic line, this multipurpose Santoku knife comfortably handles any kitchen cutting need from chopping to mincing, dicing, and slicing. Resembling something between a chef’s knife and a cleaver, the tool features a wide blade and measures 6-1/2 inches in length. Versatile at its core, this high-quality piece chops walnuts as easily as it slices apples. Leveraging a 90-year history of superior workmanship, Shun knives are precision-forged in Japan by renowned blade manufacturer KAI. Using technologically advanced processes, a VG-10 "super steel" core is clad with 16 layers of high-carbon stainless steel to produce a rust-free Damascus-look blade. The Damascus detailing not only enhances the knife’s aesthetic appeal, it also prevents morsels from sticking and avoids crushing or damaging foods. Forming a comfortable D-shaped hold, a fused blend of hardwood veneers and resin comprise the unique ebony Pakkawood handle. A traditionally offset stainless-steel bolster protects knuckles while a steel end-cap finishes the piece. Although dishwasher-safe, hand washing is recommended. This product includes a lifetime warranty. -- Amy Arnold
