Update your cutlery collection with knives that look as sharp as they slice. The Shun Narukami Collection offers ultra-sharp san-mai blades crafted from Hitachi Blue II carbon steel with stainless steel cladding. The carbon steel allows for superior edge retention with effortless blade maintenance, while the stainless steel protects the carbon core and allows for easier food release. The stylish drip-shaped cutting edge will darken over time, developing a natural patina that will let foods slide from the blade with ease. Each blade is housed by an elegant full-tang micarta handle that has been dual-riveted for added durability. The sleek black handles let the Narukami Collection blend beautifully with a variety of kitchen aesthetics, from modern and refined to classic and elegant. Handcrafted in Japan and covered by Shun's Limited Lifetime Manufacturer's Warranty, the Narukami Collection will enhance every food prep task with unmatched efficiency.
The 10" Chef's Knife is a classic kitchen tool ready to tackle a variety of slicing tasks. The large blade is tough enough to slice through meats or hard vegetables, but can also be used for precise tasks such as mincing, julienne slicing, or dicing.
