Shun Premier Kiritsuke Kitchen Knife 8" VG-MAX Damascus Steel

The Shun Premier line is not only made of high-quality materials but also showcases a stunning aesthetic. These knives are truly functional works of art. The focal point of each blade is its mirror sheen, Damascus cladding, and tsuchime (hammered) finish. In terms of performance, these knives feature Shun's proprietary VG-MAX super steel, which provides an exceptional cutting edge. The Damascus jacket also makes the blades stain-resistant, while the hammering helps release food when slicing. Each knife in the Shun Premier line is meticulously handmade in Japan, going through over 100 crafting steps. If you're interested, we also have other knives from the Shun Premier line available. One notable knife is the Kiritsuke, which is considered the master chef's knife in Japan. It excels in slicing, push cuts, and can handle any task with elegance and style.
