Chef's Knives

This medium sized multi-layered preparation knife is the perfect ‘all-rounder’. The Santoku is the Japanese multi-purpose knife and is suitable for vegetables, boneless meats, fish and herbs.

The Natsu range is a stunning collection of folded steel knives made in Seki. 16 layers of hammered steel surround a cutting core of N10. This hammering effect is called Tsuchime and is done for two reasons, to add to the beauty of the blade and to prevent the food sticking. The handle is octagonal and made from walnut wood.

The Sanshu Santoku Knife is distinguished by hand-hammered blades and walnut- PakkaWood handles that evoke the artistry of traditional hand-forged knives.

Hand-crafted in Japan, the blades are thin and lightweight. This santoku knife is indispensable for chopping and slicing fresh vegetables and small cuts of meat, combining the benefits of a chef’s knife and cleaver in one.

• Blade features a core of extremely hard VG-MAX "super steel" clad on each side with 34 microthin layers of stainless steel.
  
• The striking hand-hammered finish (tsuchime in Japanese) reduces drag when cutting and helps to quickly release food from the blade.
• Walnut-finish PakkaWood handles have a two-position design, providing a trigger grip for pull cuts and the perfect balance point for a pinch grip.
• Stainless-steel end caps embossed with the Shun logo add stability, strength and wide weight distribution from end to end.

DP3 series are my starting point for quality.
They represent extreme value and I personally recommend these for apprentice chefs and home cooks.
Anything cheaper is not worth cutting with.
