Description
The Shun Classic 6-inch Chef's Knife is a specialized kitchen tool designed to handle a wide range of tasks. The small, nimble blade is ideal for preparing fruits, vegetables, meat and more. As part of the pioneering Classic Series, the first Japanese cutlery line introduced to the United States, this knife combines traditional craftsmanship with modern innovation. Featuring a VG-MAX steel core and 68 layers of Damascus cladding, this Japanese knife offers exceptional sharpness with a precise 16-degree edge. The D-shaped Pakkawood handle ensures a comfortable, secure grip for both left and right-handed users. Supported by free sharpening and honing. Handcrafted in Japan, the Shun Classic Chef's Knife embodies centuries of knife-making expertise and a commitment to superior quality. 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
