My wife liked a smaller santoku from our crummy knife block because it fit well in her hand and was more comfortable to use than my chefs knives but it was duller than Trump supporters. I decided to purchase this when it was on sale for a gift since Shun has a good reputation with their knives. It came plenty sharp and looks really nice on our magnetic knife strip with some other Japanese steel from my collection. My only gripe is that it doesn't hold its edge as long as I'd hoped it would.

Beautiful, comfortable to use and very sharp. I bought this to replace my old Wusthof classic santoku that the handle deteriorated after 30 years of being put in the dishwasher. (I’ll be handwashing these.) The price for the set at Wayfair was lower than anywhere else I looked. I had some confusion about the length of the larger knife’s blade. The Wayfair description says 6” and I was worried that it would be shorter than the one I was trying to replace. But, the new Ikon knife blade actually measures 6.75” and is exactly the same as my old classic santoku. I’m very pleased to have these knives.. Sbb. CA. Tue Sep 22 2026

The Shun Shiranami knife series is precision forged, nature inspired, rooted in the ocean's dynamic beauty. Shun Shiranami knives combine extraordinary sharpness with superior performance. The Damascus blade is made from two premium-quality, high-carbon stainless steels. 71 alternating micro-layers of high carbon, high chromium VG10 and VG2 stainless steels are roll-forged to produce a finer grain in the steel and to give it both strength and beauty. The laminated steel is then hot forged to create the wave-inspired pattern that allows the layers to alternate along the cutting edge. During normal use, the two steels will wear at different rates creating micro serrations along the edge so that the extremely sharp edge feels sharp longer. Etched laminations in the blade reduce drag, helping food release from the blade and gliding through each cut quickly and easily. Beyond durability, the textured surface of the jute micarta handle provides a tactile experience that improves grip and control, especially in wet or slippery conditions. The full composite tang in the handle lends the knife a robust stability and provides an optimum counterweight to the blade. Shiranami, meaning ""white-capped wave"" in Japanese, reflects the knife's stunning blade pattern, featuring an exceptionally sharp blade edge and a fine, thin mid-blade for ease of slicing, this series sets a new standard in cutting performance and beauty. All Shun Shiranami knives are made in Seki, Japan.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a truly beautiful, high-quality knife. From the moment you pick it up, it feels substantial and well-made without being too heavy. The handle has a really nice grip, which makes it feel secure and comfortable to use. Performance-wise, it did not disappoint. I tested it on a variety of foods, and it literally glided through everything with ease. The sharpness is impressive and makes meal prep feel effortless and precise. Beyond performance, this is just a stunning piece of cutlery. The craftsmanship really stands out, and it feels like one of those tools you'll have and appreciate for years.
