  • Influenced by the Zen principle of simplicity, the Shun Kanso collection was designed with only the indispensable elements in mind: high-performance steel, razor-sharp edges, perfect balance & precision handling. Plainly put: With this honesuki knife, nothing is lacking & nothing is superfluous. The tool of choice for Japanese chefs for boning poultry, it's designed with a triangular, sharp-pointed blade to deftly trim close to the bone, even in very tight places.

    • Blade of highly refined, high-carbon vanadium stainless-steel takes & holds a razor-sharp edge.
    • Heritage-finish blade hides scratches & improves with age.
    • Angled handle is made of dark tagayasan, known as "iron sword wood," an extremely dense wood traditionally used to make Samurai sword handles.
    • Handcrafted in Japan.
