Made exclusively for us in Japan, this versatile knife by Shun is useful for cutting meats, vegetables, cheeses or fruits, as well as slicing through sandwiches. Hollow-ground indentations on the blade reduce friction and minimize sticking.

• Blade is constructed with a core of SG-2 powdered steel clad in a true Damascus layer of forged nickel and stainless steel.
• Inspired by centuries-old samurai sword–making techniques, the blade's construction creates a supersharp cutting edge.
• Long, slender blade is hollow ground with indentations that keep slices from sticking.
• Handle is made of moisture-resistant, resin-infused PakkaWood, shaped for comfort and control.
• This NSF-certified knife meets the high-level safety standards for professional kitchens.
• Handcrafted in Japan.
• A Williams Sonoma exclusive.
