Knife Description:
 
The Shun Kanso 7“ Asian Utility Knife is part of the Shun 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 Shun Kanso Asian Utility Knife features a beautiful multi-tasking blade from its sharp tip, which can be used to peel ginger, to its long, straight edge, perfect for portioning meat. While it may look like a meat cleaver, it isn't. Instead, this Asian Utility Knife is adept at processing quantities of vegetables for stir fry and thinly slicing meats. Every part of this knife can be put to use. The flat side is able to smash a garlic clove and the backside to tenderize meat. Use the tip and razor-sharp edge for everything from skinning fish to shaving vegetables. Once you use it, you'll find yourself reaching for this precision knife more and more often.
 
The angled handle is made of dark tagayasan, an extremely dense wood traditionally used to make samurai sword handles.
 
This classical and unique Asian Utility Knife is delivered in a Cardboard Gift Box.
 
The knife should be hand washed only!
