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.
