Shun Shiranami 7″ Santoku Knife

A santoku is the kind of knife you reach for when you want prep to feel fast, clean and in control. Shun’s Shiranami version brings that everyday versatility to the cutting board with a balanced profile that’s easy to maneuver for slicing, dicing and mincing.

Inspired by the moment an ingredient is at its peak, Shun draws on a blade-making tradition rooted in Seki City, Japan. Finished with a flowing Damascus look and a deep Prussian blue handle, this knife is made for cooks who like their tools to feel as focused as the meal they’re making.
