    Summary

    Inspired by the high-performance knives used by Japanese chefs, our exclusive Shun Fuji collection represents the very best in cutlery craftsmanship and technology. The Japanese gyuto is a chef's knife prized for its all-around versatility. Lighter and nimbler than its European counterparts, this ultra-sharp blade excels at preparing meat, fish and vegetables.

    • Blade core of SG2 steel is clad on each side with 80 alternating layers of nickel and stainless steel.
    • Resulting 161-layer blade is thin and light yet strong and hard, with a super-sharp cutting edge.

    • Double-D-shaped handle shape has finger ridges on both sides for a comfortable, ambidextrous grip.
    • End cap made of polished Damascus steel.
