The VG-MAX steel core is clad in layers of Damascus stainless steel - and near the edge, where the steels meet, an undulating line forms that echoes the hamon of a traditionally tempered samurai sword. The hammered tsuchime finish creates a series of hollow-ground cavities along the blade that reduce drag and help food release cleanly. The Santoku's flatter blade profile excels at the up-and-down chopping motion, making this the ideal set for cooks who prefer a Japanese cutting style. All three knives share the same contoured walnut-coloured PakkaWood® handle with embossed end cap. Note: presented in a stylish black Shun branded gift box - some older images show a timber box which is no longer available.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCare \u0026amp; Maintenance\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHand wash only, never dishwasher\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDry immediately after washing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHone regularly with a Shun honing steel to maintain the 16° edge\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSharpen with a whetstone or professional sharpening service when needed\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStore on a magnetic strip or in a knife block to protect the blades\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Hale Imports","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":32397992263758,"sku":"TDMS310","price":446.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0261\/1819\/3230\/files\/IMG-5248.jpg?v=1699051048","url":"https:\/\/chefandaknife.com.au\/products\/shun-premier-3-piece-santoku-knife-set","provider":"Chef \u0026 a knife","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
