May we suggest you try the Shun Classic 5.5-in. Santoku? In size, this knife is between our small and full-sized santoku. This in-between weight and size make it perfect for medium-sized kitchen tasks, from slicing carrots and shallots to mincing herbs to cutting chocolate or butter. Cooks with smaller hands or those who simply prefer a smaller, lighter knife may find that this smaller santoku becomes a top go-to knife. Some cooks have told us they use it in place of a paring knife for some tasks or love it for cutting up fruit for breakfast.</p> <ul> <li>A smaller, lighter santoku you will reach for again and again</li> <li>Proprietary VG-MAX cutting core is wear and corrosion resistant, strong, and very fine-grained to enable a razor-sharp, long-lasting 16 edge each side</li> <li>34 layers of stainless Damascus cladding each side (68 total); support the core, add stain resistance, and help food release from the blade</li> <li>D-shaped ebony-finished Pakkawood handles are comfortable for both left- and right-handed users; durable, beautiful, and won't harbor bacteria</li> <li>Full composite tang for light weight and perfect balance</li> <li>Handcrafted in Japan</li> </ul> </div> </div> </div> <div class="download-wrapper"><br></div> </div> </div> </div> </div> <div class="info-item-wrapper"> <div class="data item content" data-role="content"> <div class="additional-attributes-container" data-collapsible="true"> <div aria-label="Features + Details" role="tablist"> <div id="features-details-tab" class="additional-attributes-wrapper" aria-controls="features-details-tab-panel" role="tab" aria-selected="false" aria-expanded="true" tabindex="0"> <div class="attribute-item mobile-attribute-item active"> <h2>Features + Details</h2> </div> </div> </div> <div class="additional-attributes-wrapper" id="features-details-tab-panel" aria-labelledby="features-details-tab" role="tabpanel" aria-hidden="false"> <div class="attribute-item active"> <ul class="group-list"> <li> <span class="label">Use</span><span></span><span class="data">Slicing, Cheese & Charcuterie, Vegetable & Fruit</span> </li> <li> <span class="label">Blade Shape</span><span></span><span class="data">Santoku</span> </li> <li> <span class="label">Country of Origin</span><span></span><span class="data">Japan</span> </li> <li> <span class="label">Warranty</span><span></span><span class="data">Limited Lifetime Warranty</span> </li> </ul> </div> </div> </div> <div class="additional-attributes-container" data-collapsible="true"> <div aria-label="Specifications" role="tablist"> <div id="specifications-tab" class="additional-attributes-wrapper" aria-controls="specifications-tab-panel" role="tab" aria-selected="true" aria-expanded="true" tabindex="0"> <div class="attribute-item mobile-attribute-item active"> <h2>Specifications</h2> </div> </div> </div> <div class="additional-attributes-wrapper" id="specifications-tab-panel" aria-labelledby="specifications-tab" role="tabpanel" aria-hidden="false"> <div class="attribute-item active"> <ul class="group-list"> <li> <span class="label">Blade Length</span><span></span><span class="data">5.5 in.
