Knife Description:
 
The Shun Classic Series of Chef‘s knives is one of the most comprehensive Damask Steel Series worldwide and highly appreciated by top class Professionals as well as ambitious Hobby Chefs.
 
The Shun Classic Vegetable Cleaver, sometimes known as a Chinese cleaver, is a large, squared knife with a very wide blade. It is a multi-purpose knife. The Chinese answer to a chef’s knife.
 
It’s especially useful for processing vegetables, especially larger ones such as cabbage. Yet this cleaver is nimble enough for almost every kind of cutting and slicing, from fruits and vegetables to a full array of proteins. The Shun Classic Vegetable Cleaver feels solid, yet Shun’s thinner blade makes it easy to handle so food preparation is a pleasure.
 
The Shun Classic Vegetable Cleaver isn’t for use on joints or bones; a Meat Cleaver is made for that. The almost flat Blade contacts the cutting board all at once, minimizing the chance of accordion cutting.
 
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 Convex Cut of the Blade together with the manual honing of each Shun knife delivers an unrivalled sharpness that allows the knife to cut through even the toughest material.
 
The durable laminated 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 Santoku Knife is delivered in an attractive Cardboard Gift Box.

Knife should be Handwashed only!
