Chef's knives are commonly the most used knife in the kitchen. They're prized for their versatility and durability - used for fine tasks like mincing herbs or cutting brunoise all the way to cutting through chicken cartilage or roughly chopping tough root vegetables. The length makes this knife perfect for chopping, dicing and slicing and the wide blade keeps knuckles off the cutting board - ensuring less knife related injuries. This is an heirloom knife - one to hand down through the generations. 

You heard it here first: sharp knives save lives - and this is a knife you'll truely want to keep sharp. Shun are masters of their craft - the Premier series knives are handcrafted in Japan, forged from VG-MAX super steel for a hard yet light blade.

From tomatoes to tenderloins, this blade slices and dices with confidence and style.
