Shun Premier Santoku 180mm
$200 / ¥30,000

The Shun Premier Santoku combines Japanese tradition with modern steel technology. The SG2 powdered steel core achieves 63-64 HRC for exceptional edge retention, while the tsuchime (hand-hammered) Damascus cladding creates air pockets that release food from the blade. The walnut-colored pakkawood handle adds warmth to the design.
