{"product_id":"shun-kanso-8-chefs-knife","title":"Shun Kanso 8'' Chef'S Knife","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe chef's knife is the one knife no cook can be without. So if you like the looks of Kanso, the Shun Kanso 8-in. Chef's Knife is a must-have. This all-purpose knife is ideal for a wide variety of cutting tasks. The 8-in. length is perfect for preparing fruits, vegetables, proteins, and a wide variety of other foods. The Kanso Chef's Knife is based on its Asian counterpart, the gyuto. It offers a wider heel, a fairly flat profile toward the heel—perfect for push cuts—but we also gave it a little belly from mid-blade toward the tip so that it can be gently \"rocked\" through fresh herbs or spices to produce a very fine mince. The tagayasan-wood handles are slightly contoured, enabling an easy and comfortable chef's grip while cutting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eShun Kanso 8-in. Chef's Knife is part of the Shun Kanso series. Kanso is a design principle based on Zen philosophy. It means “simplicity,” but simplicity that is achieved by eliminating the non-essential. In Kanso, we took away anything that doesn’t matter and kept everything that does: high-performance steel, razor-sharp edge, perfect balance, and precision cutting control. The steel is Japanese AUS10A—highly refined, high-carbon, vanadium stainless steel that takes a razor-sharp edge and holds it longer. Kanso's Heritage finish hides scratches and gives Kanso a rustic look that just improves with age. The handle is made of a wood called tagayasan or wenge, which is sometimes known in Japan as “iron sword wood.” The handle contouring enables an easy chef's grip. Full-tang construction provides strength, balance, and easy cutting control. Like all Shun knives, Kanso is sharpened to a 16° cutting angle each side to cut cleanly and help preserve food’s freshness and best taste.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduct Features\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"a-vertical a-spacing-none\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTHE must-have kitchen knife\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHand-sharpened 16° double-bevel blade (32° comprehensive)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHeritage finish hides scratches, gives Kanso a rustic look that just improves with age\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSteel: AUS10A—high-carbon, vanadium stainless steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eContoured tagayasan or wenge wood\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBlade length: 8 in.
