{"product_id":"shun-classic-190-mm-wide-santoku-1","title":"Shun Classic 190mm Wide Santoku","description":"\u003cp align=\"justify\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e Shun Classic is the largest and most well-known series of kitchen knives from KAI. The idea behind it is to combine traditional Japanese blacksmithing as the samurai did it with modern sophisticated techniques that ensure consistently high quality.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n \u003cp align=\"justify\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThese ideas materialize in \u003cem data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003edamascus\u003c\/em\u003e knives, i.e. knives with blades that are made up of separate layers of steel around one hard core. Shun Classic knives are forged from a total of 65 layers of steel, the core of which is the hard VG-MAX - an improvement on VG-10, which KAI has developed itself.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp align=\"justify\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e Other details are the asymmetrical D-shaped handle, which is a clear reference to the old Japanese traditions and which is particularly comfortable for right-handed people to use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n \u003cp align=\"justify\"\u003eThe knife here is a 19 cm santoku with extra height. The Japanese word \"san\" in this context means \u003cem\u003ethree\u003c\/em\u003e , and the word santoku can therefore be translated into \u003cem\u003ethree tasks\u003c\/em\u003e , which respectively is meat, vegetables and fish, which emphasizes that it is a universal knife. It is a knife that can take the place of the classic chef's knife, where the difference lies in the balance. The decisive factor for whether you should choose the santoku, the chef's knife or both is your cutting style, where the santoku is particularly good if you are the type who lifts the knife freely from the surface in every movement.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp align=\"justify\"\u003e It is particularly suitable for slicing vegetables, but can of course also be used for meat when, for example, must be cut into smaller pieces of meat for wok or stewed dishes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp align=\"justify\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e The Shun Classic is lighter and has relatively thin blades compared to Western (German and French) kitchen knives, and therefore also cuts better. However, it also requires that you be more careful when using your knife.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cul data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e KAI (Seki, Japan)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e 18 cm santoku\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e Stainless steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n \u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e65 layers of steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e VG-MAX core\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e 61 HRC\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e D-shaped handle for right-handers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp align=\"justify\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"UTF-8\"\u003e \u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThe knife must never be washed in a dishwasher, must not cut into hard objects such as bones, cartilage, bones and frozen objects as well as hard cheeses.
