{"product_id":"shun-kanso-santoku-hollow-ground","title":"Shun Kanso Hollow Ground Santokus","description":"\u003cp\u003eShun’s Kanso series is designed based on a Zen philosophy meaning Simplicity. To make this series, Shun eliminated everything that was not essential to creating an excellent knife. According to Shun, the necessities for making a high quality knife are: high-quality steel, a razor-sharp edge, perfect balance, and precision cutting control. Kanso blades are made from a highly refined, high-carbon, vanadium Japanese stainless steel that is capable of taking a razor-sharp edge and holding it longer than other blades. The blades have a Heritage finish designed to hide scratches and give the knife a rustic look that just gets better with age. The handles are made from tagayasan wood and are contoured to fit comfortably in your hand. These knives have a full tang that gives the knives strength and perfect balance.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eA Santoku Knife is an Asian-style knife that many chefs have grown to prefer over a chef’s knife because it is capable of handling all the basic cutting tasks you would use a chef’s knife for. The blade is slightly shorter than a typical chef’s knife, which makes it incredibly easy to maneuver in any size kitchen. The 5.5 Santoku has all the same versatility of a regular 7\" santoku, it’s just a bit smaller. This knife is ideal for a chef with smaller hands, or for a chef who simply prefers a more compact blade.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Shun","offers":[{"title":"5.5 inch","offer_id":44197411487780,"sku":"M-109652","price":134.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"7 inch","offer_id":44197411520548,"sku":"M-109651","price":144.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0788\/4213\/4564\/files\/ke-kanso_santokus-zoomed__22562.1626180339.1280.1280.jpg?v=1779356019","url":"https:\/\/cookswarehouse.com\/products\/shun-kanso-santoku-hollow-ground","provider":"The Cook's Warehouse","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
