Blending time-honored Japanese craftsmanship with modern culinary innovation, Shun brought premium Japanese cutlery into kitchens across North America. Part of the original Shun series, this all-purpose chef's knife is designed for slicing, dicing, and mincing, with a proprietary VG-MAX cutting core, stainless Damascus cladding, and a traditional D-shaped Pakkawood handle with an ebony finish for natural control.
