Description
The Shun Cutlery Classic Hollow Ground Santoku 7 in. blade is a must-have for every kitchen. Named "Kitchen Knife of the Year" by BLADE MAGAZINE, this knife is an all-purpose, extremely versatile knife. The hollow-ground indentations on the blade are visually attractive and functionally useful, as they help reduce friction so this blade doesn't just cut, it glides. The name of this knife means "three virtues" and could be a reference to the three types of food it works best with—vegetables, proteins, and fruit. This capable knife is ready for nearly any task you throw at it.
Handcrafted in Japan.
