Just as versatile as a chef's knife, this multipurpose knife has a wide square blade. The knife has a thinner blade than a traditional meat cleaver, making it nimble enough to tackle a wide range of cutting or slicing tasks including tough vegetables such as cabbage. Equipped with a comfortable D-shaped handle, the razor-sharp knife showcases a stain-resistant Damascus steel "rippled" finish achieved by forging 34 layers of steel on each side.

Each exquisite Shun knife is carefully crafted in a 100-step process inspired by ancient sword smiths. The amazing blades are created in Seki City, Japan's 700-year-old center for samurai swords.
