A go-to kitchen knife in the beautiful Shun Premier series; smaller and lighter than Shuns 7-inch Santoku, the 5.5-inch knife fits readily and comfortably in hand, perfect for medium-sized kitchen tasks
Made with meticulous precision, each Premier knife requires at least 100 steps to complete; design is reminiscent of ancient Japanese hand-forged knives with striking, hammered blade finish
Hand-sharpened, 16-degree, double-bevel blade; proprietary VG-MAX super steel provides strength, durability and corrosion resistance for a sharper, lighter, harder blade
Extremely fine, razor-sharp Shun edge performs, flawlessly in home or professional kitchens, whether cutting, slicing, chopping, dicing, mincing, cubing or trimming
Beautiful walnut PakkaWood handle contoured to fit comfortably in right or left hand; withstands constant use; embossed endcap and brass ring add balance and beauty to this functional work of art
