Detail
Summary
Known in Japan as a gyuto, this light, nimble knife is ideal for slicing meat and fish, and it performs beautifully on vegetables too. The blade is narrower than a traditional chef's knife but still offers plenty of knuckle clearance. Hollow-ground indentations help prevent foods from sticking as you work.
- All-purpose Asian-style chef's knife with thin, lightweight blade.
- VG-MAX "super steel" blade is clad on each side with 34 microthin layers of stainless steel, creating a variegated look reminiscent of a Damascus-style blade.
- Indentations along the blade reduce friction and keep slices from sticking.
- Exceedingly sharp cutting edge is long lasting and easy to maintain.
- Durable PakkaWood handle resists moisture and has a D shape, to sit comfortably in the hand.
- This NSF-certified knife meets the high-level safety standards for professional kitchens.
- Handcrafted in Japan.
Dimensions & More Info
- 7"-long blade; 5"-long handle.; 4.6oz
- Handcrafted in Japan.
Use & Care
Use
- Always use caution when handling sharp objects.
- Avoid cutting on hard surfaces such as stone, metal or glass.
- It is not advisable to use any knife but a meat cleaver to cut through bone, as other blades can be easily damaged.
Care
- Hand-wash with warm water and a mild detergent; rinse and dry immediately.
- Avoid cleaners containing bleach or citrus extracts.
- Sharpen as needed. With regular use and honing once a week, your knife should not need sharpening more than once or twice a year.
- Sharpen your knife at home using a whetstone or knife sharpener designed to sharpen at a 16-degree angle, or have it sharpened by a professional.
- Store knife in a safe place to protect its edge and prevent injury.

Great knive

This was my first shun knife, & now i have 4 pairs of this brand. Theyre sharp & well balanced.. I recomend them if u want to work like a pro no doubt

aw****t

kitchen essential

This is the knife I'd take on a deserted island. Serrated blade slices tomatoes beautifully and cuts everything well. Buy two so you have a spare when you send one to Shun for its yearly sharpening.

Fantastic knife!

I bought this knife for my son for Christmas and tried it out. I was so impressed that I ordered one for me. I have always had excellent German knives but these are just superb!
