The Shun Premier Grey collection is distinguished by hand-hammered blades and grey PakkaWood handles that evoke the artistry of traditional hand-forged knives. Handcrafted in Japan, this chef's knife is a true kitchen workhorse designed for comfort, ease of use and razor-sharp performance.
- Thin, lightweight 8" 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.
- Grey-tone 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 add stability, strength and wide weight distribution from end to end.
