BENEFITS:
- VG-10 stainless steel is clad with 16 layers of SUS410 high-carbon steel on each side, producing a 33-layer rust-free Damascus look
- VG-10 “super steel” is composed of carbon, chromium, cobalt, manganese, molybdenum, silicon, and vanadium
- Shun Classics feature ebony PakkaWood® handles specifically designed for premium applications
- Stainless-steel bolsters and end caps
- The Damascus-look blade profile reduces sticking and results in less damage to the food being cut and faster prep times.
- The “D” shape rests precisely in the curve of the fingers as they curl around the handle.
- The asymmetrical bolster is ground out more on the right side to provide proper finger placement and an easy, secure grip.
- The knives balance perfectly, with the pivot point just ahead of where the handle sweeps out of the blade.
- The PakkaWood handles provide the beauty of genuine wood, but—because the wood is impregnated with a waterproof resin—the handles are as durable as plastic and dishwasher safe, too.
