Shun Classic 12" Brisket Knife, Hollow Ground

The Shun Classic Brisket Knife is an expertly crafted tool designed for flawlessly trimming and slicing large cuts of meat, such as brisket, ham, turkey, and roasts, making it a must-have for barbecues and family feasts. Its long, narrow 9.5-inch blade allows for smooth, single-pass cuts, preserving the meat’s juices and flavor for a succulent dining experience. This brisket knife ensures perfect, uniform slices without the need for sawing, enhancing both presentation and taste.

Crafted with Shun’s proprietary VG-MAX “super steel” core, the blade offers exceptional sharpness, durability, and corrosion resistance, clad with 34 layers of stainless Damascus steel per side (68 total) for strength and a stunning, flowing pattern. Hand-sharpened to a 16° double-bevel edge, it glides effortlessly through meat, while hollow-ground indentations reduce drag, helping food release easily. The rounded tip enhances safety and maneuverability. The included wooden saya (sheath) protects the blade and facilitates safe transport to events.

The ebony PakkaWood handle, riveted to a full tang, is moisture-resistant and ergonomically designed for a comfortable, balanced grip, suitable for both left- and right-handed users. Handcrafted in Japan, this brisket knife reflects Shun’s artisanal excellence, blending traditional craftsmanship with modern innovation.
