Shun Classic Chef's Knife

Kitchen cutlery's most valuable player, the chef's knife is a daily food-prep essential. The curved edge lets you rock the blade over food for efficient chopping. The smaller 6" blade is ideal for working with smaller items, and may be easier to control for cooks with smaller hands. About Shun Classic: Made in Japan, where kitchen cutlery is an artform, Shun is widely admired by professional chefs for its precision performance and cutting-edge design. The Damascus-style blade is forged of VG10 "super steel" clad in 16 layers of SUS410 high-carbon stainless steel for an incredibly sharp and long-lasting edge. The blade's distinctive moire pattern reflects the meticulous process of folding and hammering the layers together, ensuring superior strength. D-shaped Pakkawood handle fits the hand superbly for exceptional comfort and control. Stainless steel bolster enhances ergonomic performance. Dishwasher safe.
