Shun Premier 5.5-inch Santoku; Top Performance in Smaller Kitchen Knife; Proprietary Steel, High-Performance Blade; Hammered Tsuchime Blade Finish; Walnut PakkaWood Handle; Handcrafted in Japan

• A go-to kitchen knife in the beautiful Shun Premier series; smaller and lighter than Shun’s 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
