Shun Premier 7" Gyuto/Asian Cook's Knife

The Premier Asian Cook’s Knife is a light, nimble Japanese equivalent of the Chef’s Knife. A fantastic all-purpose knife, the Premier 7-in. Asian Cook’s Knife is ideal for working with meat or fish and also preps veggies beautifully. Steeped in the great tradition of Japanese blade-making, Shun’s Premier series of handcrafted blades calls to mind the hand-forged blades of ancient Japan. All blades in the Premier series feature a hammered tsuchime finish to reduce drag, a cutting core of Shun’s proprietary VG-MAX super steel, Damascus cladding to support the core and a contoured walnut PakkaWood handle. Each Shun double-bevel blade is sharpened to a cutting angle of 16 degrees each side for optimum sharpness and durability.
