Handcrafted Japanese Shun Classic 7 Santoku Knife with VG-MAX Blade & Ebony Wood Handle for Effortless Cuts

Crafted to excel in virtually every culinary endeavor, the Shun Classic 7-inch Hollow-Ground Santoku stands out as an indispensable kitchen companion. Its VG-MAX steel core, enriched with a unique blend of carbon, cobalt, tungsten, vanadium, and chromium, ensures exceptional strength, longevity, and razor-sharpness, while maintaining resistance to corrosion.

This all-purpose knife, a standout in the elegant Shun Classic collection, effortlessly tackles tasks from chopping to mincing, dicing, and slicing. Its design, resembling a fusion of a chef's knife and a cleaver, boasts a generous 7-inch blade that elegantly balances functionality with style. The scalloped edge ingeniously creates air pockets during use, preventing food from sticking to the blade.

Originating from the Japanese concept of peak perfection, Shun's craftsmanship dates back over 90 years, with their knives meticulously forged in Japan by the esteemed KAI blade manufacturer. Utilizing advanced techniques, a VG-10 "super steel" core is clad in 16 layers of high-carbon stainless steel, creating a stunning Damascus-pattern blade that not only enhances visual appeal but also facilitates non-stick cutting and preserves the integrity of ingredients.

The ergonomic D-shaped PakkaWood handle, crafted from a fusion of hardwood and resin, offers both comfort and durability. The handle's water-resistant nature ensures it can withstand daily use, while the offset stainless-steel bolster guards against accidental knuckle contact. A steel end-cap completes the knife's sleek profile. While dishwasher-safe, handwashing is recommended for optimal care, and the knife comes with a lifetime warranty as a testament to its quality.

The Shun Classic 7-inch Hollow-Ground Santoku streamlines meal preparation, turning even the busiest of schedules into a more enjoyable experience – whether it's for festive gatherings, intimate suppers, family feasts, special dates, girl's nights, or lively block parties. With its effortless glide and unparalleled performance, this knife is a reliable and versatile addition to any kitchen.
