Authentic Handcrafted Japanese Chef's Knife for All-Around Food Preparation

Elevate your collection of kitchen essentials with the addition of the Shun Cutlery 8-inch Classic Blonde Chef's Knife, a must-have all-purpose tool for any chef or home cook. This Japanese knife boasts a wide blade that ensures your knuckles stay clear of the cutting board, while its curved belly allows for a smooth "rocking" motion when mincing herbs and spices to perfection. Unlike traditional western knives, the blade of the Classic Chef's Knife is thinner, making it lighter and less fatiguing to use.

Crafted with precision, the blade features Shun's exclusive VG-Max cutting core enveloped in 68 layers of stainless Damascus cladding, providing a durable, corrosion-resistant, stain-resistant edge with an impressive 16-degree sharpness that effortlessly slices through any ingredient. The handle, made of blonde Pakkawood in a comfortable D-shape, is not only aesthetically pleasing but also hygienic, ensuring a secure grip for both left- and right-handed users.

In Japan, the art of blade making is a revered tradition, and Shun Fine Cutlery is committed to upholding this heritage. Nestled in Seki City, the heart of Japan's cutlery industry, Shun employs skilled artisans to handcraft each knife with meticulous attention to detail, resulting in blades of unparalleled quality and elegance.
