Detail
Summary
Combining the best of two knife-making traditions, this knife from our Shun Classic line has a thicker blade than traditional Japanese cutlery and a 22-degree cutting edge modeled after European chef's knives. The thicker, heftier blade allows it be used for heavy-duty cutting tasks while still offering the superb edge retention of the Shun Classic VG-Max "super steel" blade.
- Japanese-made chef's knife with 22-degree blade-edge angle of Western kitchen cutlery.
- Appropriate for tasks such as cutting through small chicken bones, cracking crab shells (with spine) and preparing melon fruits with thick rinds.
- Thick, strong blade offers more belly curve for rocking cuts.
- Broad blade is useful for transferring chopped foods from cutting board to pot.
- VG-MAX "super steel" blade is clad on each side with 34 microthin layers of stainless steel, creating variegated look reminiscent of Damascus-style blade.
- Durable PakkaWood handle resists moisture and is D-shaped to sit comfortably in the hand.
- Extra weight in stainless-steel bolster balances heavy blade.
- NSF-certified knife meets high-level safety standards for professional kitchens.
- Handcrafted in Japan.

Sharp and Balanced

About the sharpest knife that I have ever owned. Butterflying chicken breasts, and slicing through meat and vegetables are remarkably easy. The knife is very well balanced and has a nice heft to it.

Look for even the finest flaw in blade edge. They

Micro flaws were noticed only after second hand washing. Just slightly itty bitty difference in blade edge. Check for them when buying. Two weeks later there were three tiny almost unnoticeable black spots. I had to look closely but they were there. This was inspire of gentle washing and immediate drying. 4 month later they have developed into chips but now there are 4. Before you leave the store make sure you check for any imperfections in the blade and reject that knife. There was just a slight different look to the blade. No matter what you do they will get worse.

Great Knife

This is my favorite knife and has been a go-to brand for me for a few years now. The 6" works great in my small hands as an everyday knife.

Great knife, but could have made a better gift.

Great knife and I love the Shun line of knives. I have ordered and even purchased in store a full set and several individual knives. Though, I ordered this as a present and it didn’t arrive customized as requested. Thankfully, the customer service was able to refund the cost of initials printed on the blade, though it didn’t have the impact I was hoping as a gift.
