Premier 6" Chef's Knife

The Shun Premier collection is distinguished by hand-hammered blades and walnut-coloured PakkaWood handles that evoke the artistry of traditional hand-forged knives. Hand-crafted in Japan, the blades are thin and lightweight. This chef's knife is a true kitchen workhorse designed for comfort, ease of use and razor-sharp performance.

• Blades feature a core of VG-10 "super steel" clad on each side with 69 microthin layers of stainless-steel.
  
• The striking hand-hammered finish (tsuchime in Japanese) reduces drag when cutting and helps to quickly release food from the blade.
• Walnut-finish PakkaWood handles have a two-position design, providing a trigger grip for pull cuts and the perfect balance point for a pinch grip.
• Stainless-steel end caps embossed with the Shun logo add stability, strength and wide weight distribution from end to end.
