Shun Kanso Asian Utility Knife 7 in. SWT0767

The Shun Kanso 7" Asian Utility Knife is a versatile kitchen knife that bridges the gap between a chef's knife and a paring knife, making it ideal for slicing, trimming, portioning, and general food preparation. Crafted in Japan, the blade is made from AUS10A high-carbon stainless steel, offering excellent edge retention, toughness, and corrosion resistance. Its lean profile provides precise control for preparing fruits, vegetables, meats, and sandwiches, while the heritage-inspired finish helps conceal scratches from everyday use. A contoured tagayasan (wenge) wood handle completes the minimalist design, delivering a comfortable, secure grip that reflects the Kanso philosophy of simplicity.
