KSGPT0706: GPT0706 Kazahana 8" Chef's Knife

Shun Cutlery

The chef's knife is the one knife no cook can be without. This all-purpose knife is ideal for a wide variety of cutting tasks. The Kazahana Chef's Knife is based on its Asian counterpart, the GYUTO. It offers a wider heel and a fairly flat profile toward the heel - perfect for push cuts - but Shun also gave it a little belly from mid-blade toward the tip so that it can be gently "rocked" through fresh herbs or spices to produce a very fine mince.

The Kazahana line of kitchen knives is a high-quality series made from excellent materials. In Japanese, "Kazahana" means "Snow that flickers like petals dancing in a clear sky," much like the finish on this line's beautiful satin finish blades. The bright AUS10A blades are complemented by sleek ebony-colored Pakkawood handles that cover a full tang. The tang extends through the handle scales to form an end that is similar to a lanyard hole giving this knife line a unique look. The Kazahana line from Shun provides a timeless classic look with modern quality materials to make a must-own set of knives.
