Shun Cutlery

A TRADITIONAL JAPANESE ALL-PURPOSE KITCHEN KNIFE

In Japan, this knife style is known as a gyuto. It is the Japanese equivalent of the chef's knife. In other words, it's an all-purpose knife. It's ideal for meat and fish, yet performs beautifully on vegetables, too. Although the blade is thinner than the traditional chef's knife, it still offers plenty of knuckle clearance when cutting on a board. If you're looking for a lighter, more nimble multi-purpose kitchen knife, the Shun Classic Asian Cook's Knife is sure to become your go-to knife for a wide range of dicing, chopping, and slicing tasks.

The Shun Classic Asian Cook's Knife is part of the Shun Classic line of tasteful and contemporary cutlery. The Shun Classic line features beautiful Damascus-clad blades and D-shaped ebony Pakkawood handles. Yet behind these handcrafted knives' beauty is function: razor-sharp blades offering top performance. Shun's proprietary high-performance VG-MAX steel, which provides incredible edge retention, is clad with Damascus stainless steel, then ground and bead-blasted, revealing the flowing pattern of the layered steel. The result is a line of knives that are sharp, durable, and corrosion resistant, as well as beautiful to behold. The Shun Classic line also offers you the widest assortment of both traditional culinary blade shapes and cutting-edge designs, so you can always find the right knife for the task.

Knife Center has an excellent selection of kitchen knives, kitchen accessories, cutlery, and kitchen gadgets.

A faithful companion
I’ve had this knife for many years, since 2008-2009, It became my first serious buy and used it in many professional kitchens. From sushi line to to fine hotels, busy casinos, and corporate kitchens it remained a faithful companion in my culinary journey. There were times when I questioned its quality and thought at one point in time that it was a bad purchase. Today it’s a main household kitchen knife, but even with all the other pro knives that I’ve acquired over the years I fondly look upon this knife and think on how far it’s brought me. It’s lasted for so long and sharpens up easily and holds itself well to this day. However I would categorize this knife more on the utility side and wouldn’t recommend it as a main do-it-all knife for a pro environment. Makes for a wonderful home knife and will definitely serve you well for many years.

Best knives I have ever used
My wife thought I was crazy for paying a high price for a Shun knife, until she used it. It's the only knife she and I use for anything. Cuts through the hardest winter squash like they are butter. Great durability and razor sharp. Ours did get a small nick in the blade but still works as good as day 1. Had it for a few years now along with henkles, zwilling, wusthoff and even miyabi. This knife is lighter than the miyabi fusion but cuts just as well if not better. Would recommend to anyone who would like to buy one knife and not worrying about replacing it.
