Brand new Shun 7” Premier Japanese Santorum knife with Blonde handle

I ended up with two of these after an accidental order. I love the one I use. This one has never been used only opened to take photos. It’s beautiful and so useful. Blade features core of extremely hard VG-MAX "super steel" clad on each side with 34 microthin layers of stainless steel. Striking hand-hammered finish (tsuchime in Japanese) reduces drag when cutting and helps quickly release food from blade. Blonde-finished PakkaWood handle has two-position design, providing trigger grip for pull cuts and perfect balance point for pinch grip. Stainless-steel end cap embossed with Shun logo adds stability, strength and wide weight distribution from end to end. Handcrafted in Japan.
