Kershaw Shun Classic 8 inch Chef's Knife



This classic chef's knife has the traditional length suitable for most chefs. The blade is thinner than most European knives, so it's much lighter. That reduces fatigue and makes the knife a joy to use.

Shun Classic knives are beautifully finished and constructed from only the finest materials: Stainless steel bolsters and buttcaps, Pakkawood resin handles, and VG-10 high-carbon stainless steel. The edge is hardened more than most knives, allowing for an extra sharp edge. The unique qualities of the steel keep the edge sharp without brittleness. The blade is clad with 16 layers of softer steel for durability, then etched to show the unique "damascus" finish. Shun Classic knives combine modern materials with classic design for truly masterful cutlery.

Shun 8

"Simply the best knife I've ever had the pleasure to use. I've got pretty big paws and was impressed how easy the handle was to grip and manipulate the knife. The knife is surprisingly light and incredibly sharp. At first the knife slowed me down till I got used to it's sharpness. It so easily cut through food that I was certain that I'd lose a finger or so and not even know it. I also had to change to a hard plastic cutting board since I felt the knife slicing into my wood board with every cut. I have several Euro knives that now will be making their way to craigslist. If you get this knife, be sure to pick up a 15 degree knife sharpener. I bought the dual (Euro/Japanese) sharpner from Chef's Choice and it works very well."
