Shun Classic 6" Chef's Knife
- JAPANESE CHEF KNIFE: The Shun Classic 6-inch Chef's Knife is expertly designed for a variety of kitchen tasks, from slicing and dicing to mincing, making it an indispensable tool for any cook.
- PIONEERING EXCELLENCE: Bring home a piece of the renowned Classic Series – the original authentic Japanese cutlery line introduced to the United States. Enjoy superior craftsmanship and innovative design.
- SUPERIOR SHARPNESS: Crafted with VG-MAX steel and 68 layers of Damascus cladding, this knife delivers razor-sharp precision with a 16-degree edge, ensuring long-lasting performance.
- COMFORTABLE DESIGN: The D-shaped Pakkawood handle offers a comfortable and secure grip, providing optimal control for both left and right-handed users.
- JAPANESE CRAFTSMANSHIP: Each Shun knife is meticulously handcrafted in Japan, reflecting a legacy of traditional knife-making expertise and a dedication to superior quality. Supported by free sharpening and honing.
Made from VG-10 stainless steel, Shun knives are specially constructed to be harder, less brittle, but also more flexible than traditional steel formulations. The VG-10 core is clad with 16 full layers of SUS410 high-carbon stainless steel on each side, for a total of 33 layers. These layers not only protect the VG-10, they create an exquisitely detailed surface reminiscent of Damascus or pattern-forged steel, the kind once used for Samurai swords. As a result, the knives are simply stunning to look at--much like antique Damascus knives but without their tendency to rust.
The 6-inch blade of this chef's knife works great for slicing, chopping, dicing, and more. Like many Asian-style cutlery, the knife's handle is especially suited to smaller users. In contrast to the traditional round profile, however, Shun's are D-shaped to prevent the knife from twisting in the hand, which provides extra stability and a firm grip. The handle is made from ebony-colored PakkaWood, a fused blend of hardwood veneers imbued with waterproof resin that combines the warmth and traditional look and feel of wood with the strength and durability of plastic. The offset stainless-steel bolster is designed for ergonomic comfort and maximum safety, while a stainless-steel end cap provides the finishing touch. Hand washing the knife is recommended. The chef's knife measures approximately 10 by 2 inches and carries a limited lifetime warranty. --Mary Park
