FAQs
Hand wash the Shun Premier Santoku 7" Knife with gentle dish soap rather than in the dishwasher, and dry it very thoroughly with an absorbent towel. Use a cutting board soft enough to take a slight cut line, avoid hard surfaces, bones, joints, frozen foods, and pits, and never pry or twist with the blade. Store it in a block, case, in-drawer holder, sheath, magnetic bar, or the original box.
Is the Shun Premier Santoku 7" Knife covered by a warranty?
Shun's Limited Lifetime Warranty covers manufacturing defects in material and construction for the original owner of knives purchased through an authorized dealer such as Design & Grace, and it is non-transferable. Normal wear, rust, improper use or maintenance, accidents, loss, theft, and modified products are not covered; Shun's wood accessories have a 90-day warranty against original manufacturing defects, but not natural wear. Shun will sharpen your Shun cutlery free for as long as you own it, with a $15 shipping and processing fee in the US. Serrated knives can be honed by Shun's service but cannot be sharpened.
Does Shun sharpen the Shun Premier Santoku 7" Knife?
Yes. Shun sharpens Shun knives bought from an authorized dealer such as Design & Grace for free for as long as you own them; a $15 shipping and processing fee applies in the US. Straight edges are sharpened at 16° each side.
What is the Shun Premier Santoku 7" Knife best used for?
The Shun Premier Santoku 7" Knife handles the basic kitchen cutting tasks and is slightly shorter than a standard chef's knife.
What cutting motion works well with the Shun Premier Santoku 7" Knife?
The Shun Premier Santoku 7" Knife is especially well suited to a down-and-forward push cut. It also has enough belly curve to enable rocking cuts.
Use & Care
Dry the knife thoroughly with an absorbent cloth or towel after washing.
Avoid cutting on metal, tile, ceramic plates, marble, granite, plastic, acrylic, titanium, or glass.
Do not cut directly on bones, joints, frozen foods, or produce pits.
Never pry with the tip or use a sideways twisting motion.
Store the knife in a block, knife case, in-drawer holder, sheath, magnetic bar, or original box.
Hone at Shun's 16° angle and do not use a diamond steel for regular honing.
Shun sharpens straight-edge Shun knives at 16° per side free for as long as you own them, with a $15 shipping and processing fee in the US.

Shun Premier Santoku 7" Knife
7-inch Japanese santoku with VG-MAX Damascus blade and hammered finish
The Shun Premier 7" Santoku Knife is an agile, all-purpose Japanese knife for cutting vegetables, fruit, herbs, fish, and boneless meat. The broad blade favors a down-and-forward push cut, while a gentle belly curve accommodates occasional rocking motions for mincing.
Why Order from Design & Grace
Authorized Shun retailer: Design & Grace supplies genuine Shun cutlery backed by Shun's Limited Lifetime Warranty.
Support from Texas: Our team can help with knife selection, care, and long-term ownership.
One Knife for Daily Prep
A santoku offers useful blade height for chopping and a tip suited to more precise work. At seven inches, this model covers everyday cutting jobs with a slightly shorter profile than a typical eight-inch chef's knife.
Signature Features
Santoku blade shape: Suited to push cutting, slicing, dicing, and controlled chopping.
VG-MAX cutting core: Fine double-bevel edge sharpened to 16° per side.
Damascus cladding: 68 stainless steel micro-layers support and protect the core.
Hammered tsuchime finish: Helps reduce food adhesion during repeated cuts.
Walnut-colored Pakkawood handle: Contoured for secure, moisture-resistant control.
From Our Founder
"The seven-inch Santoku handles much of the same work as a chef's knife, but its profile makes push cutting especially comfortable."
Tony Boulton, Founder, Design & Grace
