Detail
Summary
The Shun Premier collection is distinguished by hand-hammered blades and walnut-colored PakkaWood handles that evoke the artistry of traditional hand-forged knives. Handcrafted in Japan, the blades are thin and lightweight. The perfect sandwich slicer, this knife has a scalloped edge that cuts effortlessly through crusty breads, meats, cheeses and vegetables, while the wide blade is useful for spreading condiments.
- Blade features a core of extremely hard VG-MAX "super steel" clad on each side with 34 microthin layers of stainless steel.
- The striking hand-hammered finish (tsuchime in Japanese) reduces drag when cutting and helps to quickly release food from the blade.
- Sharp scalloped blade cuts cleanly and efficiently through a multitude of foods.
- Wide rounded tip is handy for spreading condiments.
- Walnut-finish PakkaWood handle has a two-position design, providing a trigger grip for pull cuts and the perfect balance point for a pinch grip.
- Stainless-steel end cap embossed with the Shun logo adds stability, strength and wide weight distribution from end to end.
- 6" blade; 5" handle, 6.5 oz.
- Handcrafted in Japan.
