Bring the legend to life in your kitchen with the Shun Classic 8" Chef's Knife. The idea of eating local, fresh food, in-season at the peak of perfection reflects the ultimate goal of Shun Knives: To provide you with cutlery at the peak of its perfection. The Classic 8" Hollow Ground Chef's Knife makes for a suitable all-purpose blade for chopping, slicing, mincing, and dicing larger foods and vegetables. The hollow indentions on the side of the blade also promote easy release of foods so that food doesn't adhere to the blades while in motion.

Shun Classic Series knives and cutlery use blades comprised of 68 layers of Shun's proprietary VG-MAX steel, which are each then clad in Damascus steel for a mottled pattern that resembles fine wood grain. The result is a contemporary knife with eye-catching looks that resists corrosion and dulling, and won't break under normal use. Elegant ebony PakkaWood® handles complement the blades and provide critical balance and a supreme grip to enhance cutting, chopping, and slicing.
