Like a chef’s knife, the santoku is used for just about every cutting job in the kitchen. The name means “three virtues.” Depending on who you ask, the name refers either to the three types of foods it works well with—vegetables, proteins, and fruit—or for the three types of cuts at which it excels—slicing, dicing, and chopping.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe Shun Classic line features beautiful Damascus-clad blades and D-shaped ebony PakkaWood® handles.
