Description

The Shun Kanso Asian Utility Knife features a beautiful multi-tasking blade from its sharp tip, which can be used to peel ginger, to its long, straight edge, perfect for portioning meat. While it may look like a meat cleaver, it isn't. Instead, this Asian Utility Knife is adept at processing quantities of vegetables for stir fry and thinly slicing meats. Every part of this knife can be put to use. The flat side is able to smash a garlic clove and the back side to tenderize meat. Use the tip and razor-sharp edge for everything from skinning fish to shaving vegetables. Once you use it, you'll find yourself reaching for this precision knife more and more often.

Shun Kanso is a design principle based on Zen philosophy meaning "simplicity," but simplicity that is achieved by eliminating the non-essential. Features high-performance steel, razor-sharp edge, perfect balance, and precision cutting control. The blade is constructed of Japanese AUS10A highly refined high-carbon vanadium stainless steel sharpened to a 16° cutting angle each side to cut cleanly and help preserve food's freshness and best taste, providing a razor-sharp edge that holds longer. The Heritage finish blade hides scratches and gives a rustic look that just improves with age. The handle is made of tagayasan wood, sometimes known as "iron sword wood." The full tang construction provides strength, balance, and easy cutting control. Handcrafted in Seki, Japan with a limited lifetime warranty.

    Extremely versatile

    The knife has a nice hefty weight to it resembling a cleaver without the bulk. The tip is great for handling smaller items like mincing garlic, yet the blade overall is large enough to handle any size vegetable.

    Sweeeeet!

    Love shun knives and when i saw this one knew I had to get it. As always beautifully sharp right out of of the box (to the woe of one of my fingers that now bends a little to far in the wrong direction. Never try to catch a falling shun). Performs exactly ad it should and weighted perfectly for whatever holding style you have. Handle still grips nice even when a little wet.

    Sturdy and easy to handle

    This knife works really well cutting veggies for salads. Haven't tried it on meat yet, but I like the heavy solid feel. It seems really easy to handle. Not too crazy about the handle material, but it doesn't slip and would be really hard to stain.
