The Shun Classic Scalloped Santoku Knife is the ideal all-purpose kitchen tool for slicing, dicing, and mincing. It features an 18 cm blade with a double-sided edge and includes a scalloped (Granton) edge, which creates air pockets to reduce friction and prevent food from sticking to the blade—perfect for working with starches and moist ingredients. At its core is high-performance VG-MAX steel, hardened to an exceptional 61 HRC for a lasting, razor-sharp edge. This core is beautifully protected and supported by 32 layers of Damascus steel, creating a resilient blade that is both hard and flexible. The handle is made from durable, moisture-resistant black Pakkawood and fashioned in a traditional Japanese chestnut shape. This design ensures a comfortable and secure grip during prolonged use. The integrated tang enhances the knife's stability and balance, affirming its status as a handmade, professional-grade instrument.
