Kai Shun Classic Granton Santoku Knife 18cm

Shun Classic Granton Santoku Knife 18cm

A 180mm Shun Classic santoku with a Granton edge: a Japanese all-purpose knife for vegetables, proteins and fruit.

Santoku means ‘three virtues’, often read as the three foods it handles well: vegetables, proteins and fruit. Like a chef’s knife, it covers almost every cutting job in the kitchen.

Hollow-ground indentations along the blade reduce friction. Food releases cleanly, so slicing and dicing stays smooth.

Features

• Granton Edge – Hollow-ground scallops ease cutting and help separate food from the blade.
• VG-MAX Core – Kai’s proprietary VG-MAX steel forms the cutting edge, hardened to 60 HRC.
• Damascus Cladding – 34 stainless Damascus layers each side are ground and bead-blasted to reveal a flowing pattern.
• 16° Hand-Sharpened Edge – Each side is sharpened by hand to 16° for a fine, clean cut.
• D-Shaped PakkaWood Handle – Ebony-toned PakkaWood fills the curl of the fingers for a secure grip. The D-shape suits right-handed users.
