DM.0702W-Couteau Santoku japonais Kai Shun Classic White

18cm Santoku knife from the Kai Shun Classic White range

This traditional Japanese knife has been produced in Seki, Japan, for centuries and has the same appearance. 
Three uses: slicing, chopping and mincing.
This is the best-selling model among Japanese knives, as its functions are truly versatile: it easily cuts all meats, fish, vegetables, and even the most fragile fruits such as strawberries.
The convex edge of the blade and the manual sharpening of each Shun knife guarantee a remarkable cut.

Forged from a core of VG MAX steel with a hardness of 61 HRC, surrounded by 32 layers of damascus steel, the blade is extremely strong, holds a perfect cut and, above all, lasts an incredibly long time.
This cutting resistance - obtained by a new three-stage slow-speed sharpening process specific to Kai - considerably reduces the friction between the blade and the product, enabling better cutting of food.
Unlike the dark handle of the Shun Classic series, the Japanese chestnut-shaped handle is made from ash-coloured pakka wood, which is particularly resistant to moisture thanks to its treatment with high-quality resins.

Important: not dishwasher safe

Blade length: 18 cm
