Description

The Shun Classic Granton Santoku is a traditional Japanese styled, all purpose knife. The granton (or scalloped) blade eases cutting and helps separate food from the blade.

A santoku is a Japanese all-purpose kitchen knife. Like a chefs knife, the santoku is used for just about every cutting job in the kitchen. The name means “three virtues” which may refer to the three types of foods it works well with—vegetables, proteins, and fruit. Hollow-ground indentations on the blade help reduce friction so the blade glides through the food more easily.

All Shun Classic knife purchases come in a beautifully presented gift box.
