Knife Sharpening & Free Demos in Stores
  • The Shun Premier collection is distinguished by hand-hammered blades & walnut-coloured PakkaWood handles that evoke the artistry of traditional hand-forged knives. Handcrafted in Japan, Shun's Premier gyuto or Asian chef's knife, is a true kitchen workhorse. This all-purpose knife, lighter & more nimble than its European cousins, is designed for comfort, ease of use & razor-sharp performance. Stainless Damascus cladding & a hammered tsuchime finish promote easy food release while slicing, dicing, chopping & mincing.

    • 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 & helps to quickly release food from the blade.
    • Walnut-finish PakkaWood handles have a two-position design, providing a trigger grip for pull cuts & the perfect balance point for a pinch grip.
    • Stainless-steel end caps embossed with the Shun logo add stability, strength & wide weight distribution from end to end.
    • Full composite tang adds strength & balance.
    • Handcrafted in Japan.
