  • The Shun Blue series was developed in partnership with award-winning chef Chris Cosentino, known for his “nose to tail” philosophy of using the whole animal. This ultra-sharp knife is designed for effortless slicing, featuring a long, narrow blade that glides through meats with one swift stroke. It's also great for cutting vegetables into thin, uniform slices.

    • Traditional Japanese san mai construction features carbon steel between two layers of stainless steel.
    • Blue steel, hardened to 61 Rockwell, is a super-hard, fine-grained carbon steel known for taking and maintaining an extremely sharp edge (“blue” refers to the paper the raw steel comes wrapped in).
    • Stainless steel provides increased resistance to corrosion—and makes the knives easier to maintain.
    • Mirror-polished blade has a bead-blasted edge where the two steels meet, showcasing the layered construction.
    • Traditional Japanese octagonal handle is made of gray PakkaWood.
