The Kitchen Whisk

Kai Shun Classic Santoku Knife 7 Inch

A member of the stylish Shun Classic line, this multi-purpose Santoku knife comfortably handles any kitchen cutting need from chopping to mincing, dicing, and slicing.

Resembling between a chef's knife and a cleaver, the tool features a wide blade and measures 7 inches in length. Versatile at its core, this high-quality piece chops walnuts as easily as it slices apples.

Like a chef's knife, the Japanese santoku is a versatile knife used for just about every cutting job in the kitchen. Santoku means “three virtues” and may refer to the three types of foods it works especially well with—vegetables, meats, and fruits.

Slightly shorter than the standard chef's knife, a santoku is very easy to maneuver—even in a smaller kitchen. There is just enough belly curve to enable rocking cuts, which enhances the knife's versatility. This distinctive piece of kitchen cutlery performs beautifully and you will find that the Pakkawood handles fit your hand like a comfortable glove.
