Hollow-Ground Santoku is a beautiful, Asian-inspired chef's knife that many cooks today have added to their kitchen favorites. A knife of many talents, a santoku easily handles all the basic kitchen cutting tasks. In fact, some people even prefer it to a chef’s knife. Slightly shorter than the standard chef's knife, the Shun Kanso Santoku is very easy to maneuver—even in a smaller kitchen. There's just enough belly curve to enable rocking cuts, which just adds to the knife's versatility. We think you’ll find that this distinctive kitchen knife works beautifully and fits your hand like a glove. As easy to use as a chef's knife, the santoku is especially well suited to a down-and-forward cutting motion (push cut). Many cooks swear by their santoku for easy food preparation and top performance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe Shun Kanso 7-in. Hollow-Ground Santoku is part of the Kanso series. Kanso is a design principle based on Zen philosophy. It means “simplicity,” but simplicity that is achieved by eliminating the non-essential. In Kanso, we took away anything that doesn’t matter and kept everything that does: high-performance steel, razor-sharp edge, perfect balance, and precision cutting control. The steel is Japanese AUS10A—highly refined, high-carbon, vanadium stainless steel that takes a razor-sharp edge and holds it longer. Kanso's Heritage finish hides scratches and gives Kanso a rustic look that just improves with age. The handle is made of a wood called tagayasan or wenge, which is sometimes known in Japan as “iron sword wood.” The handle contouring enables an easy chef's grip. Full-tang construction provides strength, balance, and easy cutting control. Like all Shun knives, Kanso is sharpened to a 16° cutting angle each side to cut cleanly and help preserve food’s freshness and best taste.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eTECH SPECS\u003cbr\u003e\nA multi-purpose, must-have knife in Asian kitchens\u003cbr\u003e\nHand-sharpened 16° double-bevel blade (32° comprehensive)\u003cbr\u003e\nHeritage finish hides scratches, gives Kanso a rustic look that just improves with age\u003cbr\u003e\nSteel: AUS10A—high-carbon, vanadium stainless steel\u003cbr\u003e\nContoured tagayasan or wenge wood\u003cbr\u003e\nBlade length: 7 in.

But what was impossible is now a reality—and Shun is proud to bring it to your kitchen. The Shun Dual Core series features a Damascus blade made from two premium-quality, high-carbon stainless steels. Seventy-one alternating micro layers of high carbon, high chromium VG10 and VG2 stainless steels are roll-forged to produce a finer grain in the steel and to give it both strength and beauty. The laminated steel is then hot forged to create the herringbone pattern that allows the layers to alternate along the cutting edge. During normal use, the two steels will wear at different rates creating micro serrations along the edge so that the Dual Core’s extremely sharp edge feels sharp longer. Etched laminations in the blade reduce drag, helping food release from the blade and gliding through each cut quickly and easily. Dual Core blades are thin, light, and strong. Traditional Japanese octagon-shaped handles in ebony PakkaWood provide a comfortable and secure grip to complete the look of these beautiful knives.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIncludes traditional Japanese wooden saya, or sheath.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eTECH SPECS\u003cbr\u003e\nAsian-style, general purpose chef's knife\u003cbr\u003e\nDual core construction: 71 alternating micro-layers of stainless steel that extend all the way to the edge\u003cbr\u003e\nSteel: High-carbon, high-chromium VG10 \u0026amp; VG2\u003cbr\u003e\nHand-sharpened 16° double-bevel blade (32° comprehensive)\u003cbr\u003e\nRabbet tang\u003cbr\u003e\nHandle: Ebony PakkaWood®\u003cbr\u003e\nBlade length: 7 in.
