Knife Description:

The Shun Kanso 7 inch Hollow-Ground Santoku 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 18cm Santoku is a beautiful, Asian-inspired chefs knife that many cooks today have added to their kitchen favourites.

Knife of many talents, a santoku easily handles all the basic kitchen cutting tasks. In fact, some people even prefer it to a chefs knife. Slightly shorter than the standard chefs knife, the Shun Kanso Santoku is very easy to manoeuvre. 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 chefs 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.
 
The oval indentations, or Granton Edge, on the blade's sides reduce friction to produce clean, uniform cuts and minimize sticking.
 
This classical and unique Japanese Santoku Knife is delivered in a Cardboard Gift Box.

Knife should be Handwashed only!
