Kai Shun

The chef's knife can be used as a universal knife for cleaning, peeling, or chopping. The slender tip makes it easy to peel vegetables, while the long blade is particularly suitable for preparing fish and meat. Chef's knives typically have a blade length of 20 cm, but there are also significantly shorter (from 14 cm) and longer (over 30 cm) blades with the chef's knife geometry. KAI Shun Classic is a term for timeless elegance from KAI. The chef's knife series is one of the most extensive Damascus knife series in the world and is highly regarded by both culinary elites and ambitious home cooks. Shun chef's knives are made from 32 layers of stainless Damascus steel and a corrosion-resistant core of VG-MAX steel. This combination not only gives the blade an impressive hardness of 61 Rockwell but also makes it extremely sharp. A Shun Classic glides effortlessly through even the toughest cutting tasks—not just once, but with proper care, it remains sharp for a long time. This sharpness, combined with the balanced handle of the knives, allows for fatigue-free working. The unique Damascus pattern of the Shun professional knives gives them an incomparable beauty. As a result, all knives differ slightly in appearance, making each Shun Classic a distinctive piece that combines advanced technology with timeless design.
