Knife Description:
 
Gyuto Knife is basically the Japanese version of a Western Chef Knife with a few small modifications. Most Gyuto‘s do not have a traditional wedge and the Blade is much thinner. The Gyuto is one of the most versatile blade types, suitable for cutting, slicing meat, vegetables and fish. Lightweight and thin, these knives have a sharper blade and maintain their sharpness longer than most Western chef knives.
 
The Shun 8“ Scalloped Chef Knife comes with a 20 cm scalloped Edge. These hollow-ground indentations on the Blade create air pockets that reduce friction when cutting, making it easier to glide through the cut. Furthermore, the hollow edge creates pockets of air which prevent extra thin or soft slices from sticking to the blade.
 
Hand-crafted in Japan, the Shun Classic Blades are thin and lightweight. The VG-MAX "Super Steel" Blade is clad on each side with 16 microthin layers of High-Carbon Steel, creating a variegated look reminiscent of a Damascus-style blade. The exceedingly sharp Cutting Edge is long lasting and easy to maintain.
 
The durable PakkaWood Handle resists moisture and has a D shape, to sit comfortably in the hand and adds balance and beauty to the knife, whether in the hand or at rest in the block.
 
This NSF-certified Knife meets the high-level safety standards for Professional Kitchens.
 
This classical and unique Japanese Chef’s Knife is delivered in an attractive Cardboard Gift Box.

Knife should be Handwashed only!
