Shun Premier 7" Asian Chef Knife
ITEM#: TDM0760
Product Overview
The Shun Premier Asian Cook’s Knife, known in Japan as a gyuto, is a versatile all-purpose tool that excels in a wide range of kitchen tasks. Perfect for slicing meat, filleting fish, or chopping vegetables, this knife combines the functionality of a chef’s knife with a lighter, nimbler profile. Its narrower blade offers ample knuckle clearance when cutting on a board, ensuring comfort and precision. Handcrafted in Japan, this knife embodies Shun’s tradition of exceptional craftsmanship, making it a go-to choice for home cooks and professionals seeking agility and performance.
Forged with a VG-MAX cutting core, a high-performance “super steel,” the blade is wear- and corrosion-resistant, maintaining a razor-sharp 16° edge on each side. Surrounded by 68 micro-layers of Damascus cladding, the knife not only looks stunning but also gains added strength and flexibility. The hammered tsuchime finish reduces drag, allowing food to release easily during cutting. The contoured Pakkawood handle, with a walnut finish, is moisture-resistant and ergonomically designed for a comfortable, secure grip, minimizing fatigue during extended use.
Hand washing is recommended to preserve the blade’s edge and handle’s beauty. Backed by Shun’s commitment to quality, this knife delivers lasting durability and style. The Shun Premier Asian Cook’s Knife is an essential tool for effortless, precise prep work, elevating every culinary task with elegance.
