Known in Japan as a gyuto, this narrow knife is the Japanese version of a chef's knife. Its light and nimble construction ably handles meat, fish and vegetables. The steel cutting core is supported by 68 layers of stainless Damascus cladding, with a hammered tsuchime finish that reduces drag and helps release foods smoothly as they are sliced. The grained, walnut-hued PakkaWood ® handle contrasts beautifully with the shimmering blade while providing a comfortable grip.
Each exquisite Shun knife is carefully crafted in a 100-step process inspired by ancient sword smiths. The amazing razor-sharp blades are created in Seki City, Japan's 700-year-old center for samurai swords.
