Shun Classic 5.5″ Santoku Knife

Allow yourself the right to wield some of the best Japanese knives with the Shun Classic Series! This 5.5″ Santoku is the epitome of Japanese cutlery, as “santoku bocho” translates as the three uses: mincing, dicing, and slicing. Slightly shorter than the standard chef’s knife, the Shun Premier Santoku is light, agile, and very easy to maneuver. The blade is made from 34 layers of stainless Damascus cladding on each side, so the proprietary VG-MAX cutting core sufficiently resists corrosion and wear over time while each razor-sharp 16° edge promotes true precision. A D-shaped ebony-finished Pakkawood handle accompanies each blade with a full composite tang for balance and lightness, meaning these blades may be used for left & right-handed users. For a variety of kitchen tasks from preparing meat & veggies, this blade will grant finesse and maneuverability.
