For sale is one new and boxed:  Shun Fuji 7.5" Santoku Knife, model SGE0702; made in Japan.  This knife is not a return or factory-second, nor is it defective in any way.


Shun's new premium line, the exotic Fuji series, brings forth unmatched performance and elegance that must be experienced to be believed, rivaling above that of even their Classic knives.  I've yet to encounter any cutlery that feels so natural, looks so good, or performs so well.  The Santoku, whose name means 'three virtues,' is considered one of the most versatile knives and will be found useful in any kitchen.  Whether to start or supplement a set, this knife is certain to change your culinary experience just as it has for professional chefs worldwide.



Product Description:

Shun crafts their Fuji Santoku Knife with the exotic SG-2 powdered steel as a cutting core, but then goes a step further by cladding it in a true Damascus pattern cover.  This is incredibly difficult and labor intensive because the Damascus process involves the folding together of two different types of metals; in this case, nickel alloy and high-carbon steel.  So, unlike the other Shun lines, there are actually three types of metal in the blade instead of two.  The Fuji's SG-2 powdered steel is processed using a special method known as hot isostatic press which yields an alloy with a much higher density and grain structure and no imperfections or weak points, permitting an impressive Rockwell hardness of 64.  SG-2 is simply unmatched in performance, edge-retention, and re-sharpening.  The Fuji also feature ambidextrous handles made from richly-grained dark tagayasan 'iron sword' wood, a dense wood traditionally used in Japan to make samurai sword handles, and are capped with polished Damascus steel.
