KAI Shun Premier Hammered Santoku Knife 18cm
R6,199.00 Incl VAT
An alternative to the chef’s knife, the KAI Shun Premier Hammered Santoku Knife 18cm is perfect for cutting, chopping and mincing vegetables. The blade has a straighter edge than a chef’s knife and has a blunted sheepsfoot-tip blade with a thinner spine and can easily slice thin-boned and boneless meats, fish and vegetables. For the trend-setting Shun Premier Tim Mälzer series, Kai have used 32-layer corrosion resistant damask steel. It is embellished with a hand-hammered surface which in Japan is known as Tsuchime, thus combining timeless aesthetic qualities with ultimate sharpness.
Kai Shun adapts centuries-old samurai blacksmithing to make exceptional Japanese knives for the modern cook. Every knife in their world-renowned Classic range has a steep tapered blade, which makes it much sharper than a Western knife.
