Shun Series chef knives are one of the most comprehensive damascus steel ranges worldwide and are appreciated by avid hobby chefs as well as world-class professionals. Shun professional chef knives are made of 32-layer special stainless damascus steel. The base layer is made of VG MAX steel. Extremely hard (61�1 HRC, 1.0% carbon, 1.5% cobalt) and wear-resistant, this steel gives the blade unrivaled sharpness. The sharpness that allows each Shun knife to cut even the hardest materials is the result of the convex cutting and hand sharpening of the blade edge. Thanks to this sharpness and well-balanced weight, you will not feel tired while working. The unique and individual character of Shun knives comes from perfecting the naturally beautiful grain texture of damascus steel. In this way, each Shun knife is easily distinguishable and unique � a work of art where craftsmanship meets technology and design. Inspired by the masterful art of samurai swords and with a technique that enables the manufacture of the best quality chef knives, the Shun series also offers western knife shapes.
