Shun Classic Alton's Angled 5.5-in. Santoku

Shun Classic Alton's Angled 5.5-in. Santoku : This santuko blade ("santuko" from the Japanese word for "three virtues") does all your chopping, dicing and mincing with a handle set at a smaller 10 degree angle instead of the Shun Classic normal 16 degree angle. The Food Network's Alton Brown worked with Shun to produce this knife that allows both a firm, precise grip and full contact with the cutting board and no scraped knuckles! The natural curve created between the blade and the user's arm makes superior blade control even easier. The VG-10 steel core blade with 16 outer layers of stainless-steel is stain- and rust-resistant with a razor-sharp beveled edge for exceptional cutting performance every time. Product Features VG-10 stainless "super steel" holds an incredibly sharp edge longer Kasumi Method, the traditional Japanese knife making style, clads a protective layer of stainless-steel over a core of extremely hard carbon steel Blade's distinctive moiré pattern helps ensure superior strength Razor-sharp, long-lasting edge is ground to 10 degree angle "D"-shaped handle design for supreme comfort and control Ebony-black PakkaWood genuine wood handle is infused with a waterproof resin for long-lasting durability Full tang construction Stainless-steel bolsters and end caps Rockwell Hardness rating of 61 safeguards a superior sharp edge Dishwasher-safe NSF approved Made in Japan Limited lifetime warranty Presentation box included
