KAI Shun Classic DM722 Tomato Knife 15 cm

The KAI DM722 Shun Classic 15 cm tomato knife is designed to slice soft-skinned produce without crushing the interior. Its 150 mm blade features a serrated edge that grips smooth surfaces, such as tomato skins or waxy fruit. This blade geometry allows for precise sectioning of delicate vegetables and citrus using a controlled sawing motion, ensuring clean, uniform cuts. It is well-suited for preparing ingredients with firm exteriors and soft centers. The blade’s distinctive silver and dark pattern reflects its layered construction.

The Pakka wood handle is durable and well-suited to the rigours of a busy kitchen. Its ergonomic shape provides a secure grip during repetitive tasks. KAI uses a black and brown handle finish that contrasts with the metallic blade. The knife must be hand-washed to protect the materials, as it is not dishwasher safe. The contoured handle is shaped for comfort during extended food preparation.
