For the true Japanese cuisine
aficionado, nothing compares to the scalpel-like precision of a single-bevel blade.
The newly updated Shun Pro line features the same incredibly sharp chisel edges
as in the past and Shun's D-shaped PakkaWood handles, which lend a secure and
comfortable grip. The beautiful graffiti-etched blade is made with high-carbon
VG10 steel, which takes and holds and edge longer than other premium steels. The
blade backs are gently hollow ground, creating an air pocket between the knife
and the food being cut, so the knife glides through food with quick precision.
The wide shinogi (or blade bevel) makes sharpening these knives on a whetstone
practically effortless.
