Description: Shun Kanso 5" Honesuki / Asian Multi-Prep Knife The 5-in. blade with its triangular shape is perfect for maneuvering around bones and between joints. Its razor-sharp, 16° cutting edge makes removing breasts from bone easy and it cuts joint cartilage almost like butter. Yet this knife does even more. It's also ideal as a utility knife for trimming, slicing, and dicing a full range of fruits and vegetables.Shun pronounced "shoon" in Japanese, is known as "at the peak of perfection". Kanso is a design principle based on Zen philosophy. It means “simplicity,” but simplicity that is achieved by eliminating the non-essential. In Kanso, we took away anything that doesn’t matter and kept everything that does: high-performance steel, razor-sharp edge, perfect balance, and precision cutting control. The steel is Japanese AUS10A—highly refined, high-carbon, vanadium stainless steel that takes a razor-sharp edge and holds it longer. Kanso's Heritage finish hides scratches and gives Kanso a rustic look that just improves with age. The handle is made of tagayasan wood, sometimes known as “iron sword wood." The handle contouring enables an easy chef's grip. Full-tang construction provides strength, balance, and easy cutting control. Like all Shun knives, Kanso is sharpened to a 16° cutting angle each side to cut cleanly and help preserve food’s freshness and best taste. Made in Japan.The Shun Kanso Asian Multi-Prep Knife has been designed to be a remarkable culinary tool for scoring and trimming meats as well as a wide range of other food prep tasks. With its triangular tip and 5-inch blade, bones and joints separate easily from poultry, fish or other protein. The Japanese AUS10A stainless steel is highly refined carbon and vanadium, meaning it will hold its edge longer for an excellent slice with every use.Blade Construction: AUS10A—high-carbon, vanadium stainless steelFull tang, provides strength & balanceHand-sharpened 16° double-bevel blade (32° comprehensive)Handle: Contoured tagayasan woodHeritage finish hides scratches, gives Kanso a rustic look that just improves with ageMade in JapanLifetime Manufacturers Warranty
