Description

The Shun Sora 8-inch Chef’s Knife is a specialized kitchen tool designed to handle a wide range of tasks and is ideal for preparing fruits, vegetables, meat and more. This gyuto-style Japanese kitchen knife is slightly less curved than a western chef’s knife with a gentle roll off the tip, cutting more food with less lifting of the blade. Featuring VG10 steel for a 16-degree edge supported by 420J stainless steel on the blade upper, this Japanese knife delivers exceptional sharpness. The traditional, full-tang handle is made of a textured PP/TPE polymer blend, offering excellent grip and easy maintenance. Supported by free sharpening and honing. Handcrafted in Japan, the Shun Sora Chef’s Knife is an essential addition to your cooking knife collection.
