About this product

The SHUN CUTLERY Kanso Hollow-Ground 5.5" Santoku Knife is a compact kitchen knife designed for precision and balance in medium-sized food prep tasks. Its smaller size offers improved control for slicing, dicing, and mincing, making it ideal for cooks with smaller hands or those who prefer a more manageable tool. The blade features hollow-ground edges that reduce friction and help food release quickly during cutting. Crafted from high-carbon AUS10A Japanese steel, the knife delivers a razor-sharp edge that resists dulling. The handle is made of tagayasan wood, also known as wenge, with full-tang construction for durability and balanced handling. This santoku exemplifies the Zen-inspired Kanso design principle—simplicity through essential refinement.
