Shun Shiranami 7" Santoku Knife

The santoku is a versatile, Asian-inspired chef’s knife designed to handle the essential tasks of the kitchen with ease. Ideal for slicing, dicing, and chopping, its slightly shorter length and balanced profile make it light, agile, and comfortable to maneuver. For many cooks, it quickly becomes the knife they reach for most.

The Shun Shiranami Santoku brings Japanese artistry to this go-to shape. Beautifully refined and highly capable, its fine, thin blade delivers clean, precise cuts with smooth, fluid motion. Forged from Shun’s 71-layer Dual Core Damascus steel, it offers exceptional cutting performance and edge retention, while the flowing wave-inspired pattern reflects the series name, Shiranami, meaning “white-capped wave.”

The Prussian blue jute micarta handle provides balance and a secure grip for confident control. Elegant and expressive, the Shiranami Santoku transforms everyday preparation into a composed and satisfying experience.
