The extra-wide blade with a slight curve is a traditional cleaver design, plus it features the one-sided bevel and hollow-ground back side which ensures swift and confident motion.Made in the ancient city of Seki, Japan, Shun Pro knives rely on extremely sharp 2.5mm blades, made of a single piece of Japanese VG10 steel for strength, called the Honyaki style in Japan. It offers precision slicing, cutting and chopping that is unprecedented by any of its German competitors. Sharper out of the box than other knives, Shun Pro knives feature a traditional Japanese blade, with a one-sided beveled edge and hollow-ground or concave back. Japanese chefs in particular prefer the single bevel because it can be honed backed to its original sharpness, even after hours of slicing, using a whetstone. In addition, the hollow ground divots on the back produce air pockets that remove friction when slicing, so food releases easily without any loss of flavor. The ebony Pakkawood 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, with the bonus of being dishwasher safe and NSF approved for commercial kitc Amazon.com Review: A member of the stylish Shun Classic line, this heavy-duty Chinese chef’s knife comfortably handles hearty kitchen tasks ranging from cutting through poultry bones to chopping vegetables. Essentially a cleaver, this tool features a wide, rectangular blade measuring 7-3/4 by 3-3/8 inches. The slightly curved cutting surface rocks gently and maintains its razor-sharp edge. Leveraging a 90-year history of superior workmanship, Shun knives are precision-forged in Japan by renowned blade manufacturer KAI. Using technologically advanced processes, a VG-10 'super steel' core is clad with 16 layers of high-carbon stainless steel to produce a rust-free Damascus-look blade. The Damascus detailing not only enhances the knife’s aesthetic appeal, it also prevents morsels from sticking and avoids crushing or damaging foods. Forming a comfortable D-shaped hold, a fused blend of hardwood veneers and resin comprise the unique ebony Pakkawood handle. A traditionally offset stainless-steel bolster protects knuckles while a steel end-cap finishes the piece. Although dishwasher-safe, hand washing is recommended. This product includes a lifetime warranty. -- Amy Arnold Customer Reviews Average Rating: Rating: - piece of art Rarely in life does something that garners so much hype and attention stands up to expectations. However the Shun knife I received not only met, but beat expectations. My parents will never understand how I can pay more than a $150 for a knife, but after cutting some vegetables and onions, I was out of words. The D shaped handle fit my hand very well, it was not as heavy as I expected. It was sharp out of the box and the Damascus pastern was very attractive. The sad thing about having one shun knife ... Read More Rating: - very nice knife i've been working with this knife for several weeks now, and really enjoy using it. i was initially a bit concerned about the bolster - or lack thereof - and how that would translate comfort wise in my hand. i'm used to a wusthof chef's knife with a fairly beefy bolster, so initially this felt a little thin. after working with it for a while, i've found that the knife is actually very comfortable to hold and my concerns were unnecessary. the knife is fairly heavy, not due ... Read More Rating: - Excellent asian style knife. I have a Shun KenOnion style knife, but then I'm chinese and always wanted a asian style knife. The quality of Shun is good, but the price tag is really really out of reach. At first site, the knife looks intimidating, it looks very big and heavy compared to the normal chef knives. Once you pick it up, you'll be amazed. The weight is perfectly balanced, and the wide edge makes picking up chopped veggies or meat a cinch. In fact, this one feels more ergonomic than the ergonomically ... Read More Rating: - Superb, spendy knife I bought this knife a year ago. It rapidly became my favorite cutting implement. I postponed reviewing it to make sure initial infatuation was not coloring my opinion. The balance is near perfect, the blade shape works well for cutting, slicing, mincing, and chopping. The steel readily takes a sharp edge and holds it well. This cleaver excels at both moderate cutting and delicate work. The wood handle is warm and easy to grip even with wet hands. The strong blade allows using the side for ... Read More Rating: - Excellent Knife, But... be sure you finish it before you use it I recently purchased the Shun 7 3/4 Chinese Chefs knife to replace my very very old carbon steel 10" french chefs knife which had developed a cracked, loose handle. I own the stainless version of the Shun instead of the "classic" version with the composite wood handle. I was slightly apprehensive about ordering a knife with an all metal handle because I thought it might become slippery when wet or greasy, however the wonderful asymmetric shape(for my hands at least) and lightly sanded finish provide a ...
