REVIEW:

Confirmed amongst top professional chefs, if there is one knife to buy, make it a chef's knife. And for that, look no further than 2005 Blade Show and International Cutlery Fair award winner: Kershaw's 8" Ken Onion Shun Chef's Knife, named "Kitchen Knife of the Year." Although this knife is expensive - reviewers, home, and professional chefs have discovered that this fine cutting tool featuring VG-10 blade technology combined with a unique blade sweep and ergonomic handle design is well worth it!

The Shun Collection:

The Classic Shun Knife Line is perhaps the best known, thanks to celebrity chef Alton Brown, of the Food Network.

In fact, Kershaw, now has a series called, Shun Alton's Angle knives designed with a unique 10-degree angle that ensures firm contact with the cutting board yet allows you to keep a firm grip on the knife without hitting your knuckles on the board.
Shun Alton's Angle Knives feature:
16 layer clad stainless steel
33-layer rust-free Damascus look
Stainless steel bolsters and end caps
Available in Stainless and Classic

Benefits to Classic Shun Collection:

  • Knives are perfectly balanced
  • Damascus knives look and finish for less sticking
  • Sharper blades for faster food preparation times
  • Less cutting fatique
  • Less food damage
  • PakkaWood D-shaped ergonomic handle locks into your hand while you work

If you prefer a stainless steel handle, instead of the PakkaWood, take a look at Shun's stainless steel knives. (The blades in Classic and Stainless are the exact same).
