Shun 3-in. Ken Onion Paring Knife

This 3-inch Paring Knife offers such precision and control, it will improve meal presentation and reduce waste. The sharp blade makes it effortless to peel even slippery foods like kiwi while leaving most of the fruit intact. The wavy, Damascus pattern allows the blade to glide through foods without sticking. The stainless handle is unique to this line and provides comfort and control. Made in the ancient city of Seki, Japan, Shun knives rely on extremely sharp blades, made of Japanese VG10 steel clad with 32 layers (16 on each side) of a proprietary blend of high-carbon stainless pounded so thin, it delivers precision slicing, cutting and chopping that is unprecedented by any of its German competitors. Imagine, a knife made the same way as ancient Samurai swords, handcrafted still today. Sharper out of the box than other knives, the Shun cutlery maintains its sharpness longer, since the finely-polished blade edge has a natural tendency to remain straighter, yet when required, it can be honed using a standard steel or sent to the factory for free sharpening. The wavy, Damascus-look pattern on the blade creates minute air pockets that offer stick resistance, so food releases easier and prep time is reduced–plus it’s rust-free. The Shun Steel line features an attractive stainless steel handle, formed in the same “D” shape as the Classic knives, for comfort and control. The seamless construction provides a sleek look while also being dishwasher safe and NSF approved for commercial kitchens. Shun Steel knives are suited for right-handed users only.

Shun 6-in. Classic U2-Ultimate Utility Knife

The Ultimate Utility, or “U2,” serves a multitude of purposes in the kitchen. The new “Wavation” reverse-scalloped edge slices rather than tears foods, which means the knife is ideal for multiple cutting activities. These include, but are not limited to, slicing delicate pastry doughs and cakes without crumbling and cutting smooth-skinned vegetables as well as delicate fillet work. It also makes the grade for slicing baguettes and breads. The blunt-nosed, extra-wide blade is perfect for spreading icings and jams, eliminating the need to change tools in the middle of preparation. The blade is specifically designed to fit to the bottom of a mayonnaise jar, making the “U2” the ultimate sandwich preparation knife. Made in the ancient city of Seki, Japan, Shun knives rely on extremely sharp blades, made of Japanese VG10 steel clad with 32 layers (16 on each side) of a proprietary blend of high-carbon stainless pounded so thin, it delivers precision slicing, cutting and chopping that is unprecedented by any of its German competitors.

The ebony Pakka wood handle, a highly durable combination of layers of white birch wood and resin, is designed in a “D” shape to fit firmly and comfortably in the hand. Shun knives are NSF approved for commercial kitchens.

Shun 9.5-in. Pro Sho Yanagiba Knife

With its classic single-bevel blades and traditional Japanese styles, Shun Pro is a specialty line designed for the true Asian-knife connoisseur. Each knife features a mirror-polished single-bevel edge and hollow-ground back that provides the extreme control required for precision slicing – the kind of precision needed for sushi and sashimi preparation, for example. Graffiti etching above the shinogi, or blade bevel, adds to the contemporary beauty of the knife while allowing food to easily fall away from the blade. Knife styles in this line include the Deba (a multi-purpose prep knife), the Yanagiba (a long slicing knife perfect for sashimi), and the Nakiri (a vegetable chopping knife). These knives are essential for cooks who are seeking to prepare true Asian cuisine. Features: These knives feature a wide shinogi and single-bevel blade design preferred by Japanese chefs, to maintain cutting consistency, a critical element in Japanese cooking. Traditional Japanese blade design for the ultimate knife connoisseur – single-beveled edge with a hollow ground (or concave ground) back. This means only the cutting edge of the blade touches the food for superior stick resistance and the cleanest cuts. Constructed of 2.5-mm. of pure, high-carbon VG-10 stainless-steel “super steel,” composed of carbon, chromium, cobalt, manganese, molybdenum, silicon, and vanadium. Single-bevel edge, designed for precision cuts, slices efficiently and stays sharp over time. These knives can easily be maintained by sharpening on a fine-grit whetstone or through professional sharpening. Soak the whetstone for about 20 minutes, set on a damp cloth for stability, and pull the knife¹s edge across the whetstone at a 16 degree angle. The wide shinogi (bevel) on the knife can be used as a guide, making it easy to maintain the knife¹s sharpness. Honyaki style knife construction, consisting of one piece of steel. Due to the single-sided bevel design, Shun Pro knives are best suited for right handed cooks. D-shaped Pakkawood® handles.
