Shun Kanso Gokujo Knife, 6.5"
With a thin, curved blade, the Shun Kanso gokujo knife makes it easy to separate meat from bone—even fibrous tissue is no match for the incredibly sharp edge. Plus, it has the perfect degree of flexibility for gliding through the body of fish, quickly removing bones and skin. As pretty as it is practical, this high-performance knife makes a welcome addition to any cook’s collection.
Shun’s Kanso series is based on the Zen philosophy of simplicity—removing anything that doesn’t matter and keeping only the essentials. Made with Japanese, high-carbon steel, Kanso knives take a razor-sharp edge and hold it longer. Full-tang construction provides strength, balance and precision cutting control. Hand sharpened to a 16° double-beveled edge, these knives deliver perfectly smooth cuts.
Kanso’s beautiful handle is made of tagayasan wood, traditionally used in Japan for making samurai sword handles. A heritage finish on the handle hides scratches, giving knives a rustic look that improves with age. Plus, the contoured handle enables a chef’s grip that’s comfortable for both right- and left-handed cooks. Handcrafted in Japan, these knives pair exceptional performance with timeless artistry.
