Shun Cutlery Premier 8" Chef's Knife TDM0706 - Made in Japan

Your chef's knife will be the most-used knife in your kitchen, so you want to find the one that feels like an extension of your arm. The beautiful Shun Premier 8-in. Chef's Knife could be the one. This breathtaking knife is lightweight, agile, and offers an extremely comfortable grip. In fact, Shun Premier's thinner blades makes this chef's knife lighter and less tiring to use than comparable European-style chef's knives. The 8-in. length and razor-sharp edge are perfect for slicing and dicing a full range of foods. The wide blade keeps knuckles off the cutting board and comes in extra handy when transferring cut food from board to pan. With its curved belly, the Chef's knife can be gently rocked through fresh herbs or spices to produce a very fine mince. Beautiful and versatile, this is the one you will reach for every day. VG-MAX cutting core is the latest in the VG line of "super steels"—wear resistant, corrosion resistant, and holds a fine, sharp edge with a 16° angle on each side. Sixty-eight micro layers of Damascus cladding look beautiful while supporting and protecting the core. The hammered tsuchime finish helps release food easily when cutting. The walnut finish, contoured Pakkawood handle offers comfort and control while resisting moisture. Handcrafted in Japan.
