Shun Premier Chefs Knife 25cm
The Shun Premier Chef's Knife is an exceptionally styled and durable piece of cutlery. These knives feature a hammered blade - ""tsuchime"" in Japanese looking like they were made over a blacksmith's anvil. The hammer marks act much like the grooves on a hollow ground knife, reducing friction and preventing food from sticking to the blade. The blade has a core of VG10 stainless steel wrapped in 16 layers of stainless steel for precision and durability. The beautiful PakkaWood handle is oblong and slightly curved to meet the contours of your hand. The Premier Chef's Knife is suitable for almost any kitchen task, from chopping onions to slicing fat.

The craftsmanship is beautiful. It's the sharpest knife I have in my kitchen. It's my go-to for all cooking needs. It cut through some frozen sausages I was using for tomato sauce with the greatest of ease. Definitely a necessity if you love to cook!!! Highly recommended : )

This knife is awesome. The only problem is, you must never run it over one of your fingers.😩 I do believe it would completely slice off a finger. But I absolutely love it for cooking.

This knife is pretty, blade is the thinnest I've used. Brand new this is sharp. For a home cook maybe as sharp as any would need. The VG10 core is solid dependable steel and is easy to sharpen and holds an edge for some time. I love the profile, and the handle is a very comfortable size and shape for my medium sized hands.Cons. The top of the knife could have been rounded and or polished down a bit more. The hammered finish takes a bit more time to clean. Being that this knife has such a polished finish more maintenance and care is required to keep it looking so. It is also one of the more fragile knives in my arsenal. I would certainly suggest only those prepared to handle a knife with care to buy this knife. If you do you will have a great knife for years.
This utensil is a great addition to my kitchen, it looks good and at 10" gives me the freedom of movement to slice, dice and cut easier. I don't think I could go back to an 8" chef knife.This knife cuts so easy and is super sharp. Not to mention very beautiful to see in action
I recently bought this knife at my local WS in Upper Montclair, NJ to replace a badly chipped Wusthof chef's knife. The sales associate Tom (who happen to be a pro chef and extremely knowledgeable) recommended this Shun. Ok, got it home, gave it a quick rinse and started slicing and dicing leeks and potatoes. Well, the cliche is "cuts like a hot knife through butter" - well that is exactly what this feels like - so much so that I (slightly) nicked my fingers 2 times until I got used to exactly how sharp this blade - and the tip is. Far and away, the sharpest knife I have ever handled - so use caution as this is so much sharper (not necessarily better) than the German knives. I do hand wash and dry and amd hoping that the blade retains this sharpness for a good whiel ... MoreI recently bought this knife at my local WS in Upper Montclair, NJ to replace a badly chipped Wusthof chef's knife.

Sleek beautiful and very maneuverable. Blade, as always promised by shun, is nothing short of razor sharp. However they are brittle knives for the inexperienced and you must become accustomed to propert technique to not chip the blade. If you do tho, shun has a lifetime sharpening warranty.
First of all, this is a work of art in all respects. From a culinary, technological, metallurgical, ergonomic, and artistic viewpoint in every respect, this knife may be the finest all-around cooking knife available. Mine came to me as a gift from my wife, and I put the initial edge on it in a matter of 5 minutes. You simply guide this knife into any food you are preparing, and the blade does all the work. The handle fits into your hand very comfortably, not too thick or too thin - just right! It doesn't matter where along the blade that you choose as the point of work, the cuts are effortless and controlled. The hammered finish of the thickest portion of the blade prevents food from vacuum locking to the knife. The edge holds very sharp through many uses, negating ... MoreFirst of all, this is a work of art in all respects.

It doesn't matter where along the blade that you choose as the point of work, the cuts are effortless and controlled. The hammered finish of the thickest portion of the blade prevents food from vacuum locking to the knife. The edge holds very sharp through many uses, negating the need for the chef's urge to over sharpen the blade. This in turn will make the knife last years longer than a typical chef's knife. Incorporating the equivalent ancient methods for samurai sword making into the knife has made the quality of the blade extremely high and durable. The lines of this knife are elegant, clean, classic, and yet very personal. You take it into your hand and feel an immediate comfort and familiarity. This is because of the design - it's heft and balance are perfect. The cross-section of the handle keeps the blade oriented perfectly to the work, and since the blade cuts so easily, the amount of pressure necessary to grip the knife is very low when compared to knives of lesser design or quality. This translates to less effort and stress to the user, reducing the user's fatigue and increasing the enjoyment of using the knife. Cooking should be a pleasant experience, and the quality of this knife adds to that feeling. This knife should last for generations if appropriate care is given - and that is as it should be. Buy this knife and it will become a personal treasure.
Careful, these guys are very fragile. A good friend of mine that I work in kitchens with recommended I pick up a Shun for some basic vegetable chopping, etc. (Take that into consideration, this knife cannot and should not be used to trying to break apart a chicken, for example.) and it immediately chipped, cutting carrots on the same wooden cutting board I've had for many years and used successfully with many knives. Not even a small chip, but an entire 1.5'' sliver of the edge flaked off. The blade lasted a whole, I'd say, 45 seconds of use.I don't know whether I got a lemon or not, because I know some folks that swear by Shuns as being nice little workhorses, but as a fella that works in restaurants professionally, we don't make a ton of money, famously, and ... MoreCareful, these guys are very fragile.

I started my set! After the pandemic forced my family to stay in doors I started cooking. It has been 10 years since I had the time or passion to cook. My big store $29.99 sets were not cutting it! The dishwasher didn't help my old knifes either. This knife will make you aware of its location at all times for how sharp this knife is. Now I have a "family" set and these are mine. I'm very amateur but in several months will tackle wet stone sharpening. I appreciate Shun for the great craftsmanship and attention to detail. As my wallet and skill increases I look forward to trying more Shun knifes!
