  • The Shun Premier collection is distinguished by hammered blades and walnut-colored 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 and more nimble than its European cousins, is designed for comfort, ease of use and razor-sharp performance. Stainless Damascus cladding and a hammered tsuchime finish promote easy food release while slicing, dicing, chopping and 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 hammered finish (tsuchime in Japanese) reduces drag when cutting and helps to quickly release food from the blade.
    • Walnut-finish PakkaWood handles have a two-position design, providing a trigger grip for pull cuts and the perfect balance point for a pinch grip.
    • Stainless-steel end caps embossed with the Shun logo add stability, strength and wide weight distribution from end to end.
    • Full composite tang adds strength and balance.
    • Handcrafted in Japan.
