Premier Asian Cook's Knife
Want it by 12/24?In Japan, this knife style is known as a gyuto and is the Japanese equivalent of the chef’s knife. It's an all-purpose knife ideal for meat and fish, yet it also performs beautifully on vegetables. Although the blade profile is narrower than the traditional chef’s knife, it still offers plenty of knuckle clearance when cutting on a board. If you’re looking for a lighter, more nimble multi-purpose kitchen knife, the Shun Premier Asian Cook’s Knife is sure to become your go-to knife for a wide range of food preparation tasks.
Features:
- Takes at least 100 handcrafted steps to complete
- Made of the most advanced materials in the industry
- Each blade has a cutting core of Shun's proprietary VG-MAX "super steel" to take and hold a precision edge
- Layered Damascus cladding supports the core and provides additional stain resistance
- Undulating line formed near the edge of the blade is similar to the hamon formed when samurai swords are tempered using a traditional clay-baking technique
- Hammered tsuchime finish acts like a series of hollow-ground cavities to reduce drag
- Handles nestle comfortably in the hand, while the embossed end cap adds balance and beauty
