The Shun Shiranami Santoku Knife is a versatile, Asian-inspired chef’s knife designed to handle everyday kitchen tasks with precision and ease. Ideal for slicing, dicing, and chopping, the santoku’s slightly shorter length and balanced profile make it lightweight, agile, and comfortable to use. For many home cooks and professionals alike, it quickly becomes the go-to knife for daily meal preparation.
Combining Japanese artistry with exceptional performance, the Shun Shiranami Santoku features a fine, thin blade that delivers clean, precise cuts with smooth, fluid motion. Forged from 71-layer Dual Core Damascus steel, the blade utilizes alternating VG10 and VG2 stainless steels for superior edge retention and long-lasting cutting performance. The flowing, wave-inspired blade pattern reflects the Shiranami name, meaning white-capped wave, adding elegance and distinction to your kitchen.
The Prussian blue jute micarta handle offers excellent balance, durability, and a secure grip for confident control during detailed prep work. With a full composite tang for added strength and stability, this handcrafted knife is designed to perform beautifully for years to come.
