Classic // Asian Cook's Knife 7"

In Japan, this knife style is known as a gyuto. This all-purpose knife is the Japanese equivalent of the chef’s knife, perfect for meat, fish, and vegetables too. Although the blade profile is narrower than the traditional chef’s knife, it still offers plenty of knuckle clearance when cutting on a board. If you’re looking for a lighter, more nimble multi-purpose kitchen knife, the Shun Classic Asian Cook’s Knife is sure to become your go-to knife for a wide range of food preparation tasks.

The Shun Classic line features beautiful, razor sharp Damascus-clad blades and D-shaped ebony PakkaWood® handles. Each blade is composed of Shun's proprietary high-performance VG-MAX steel, clad with Damascus stainless steel, then ground and bead-blasted to reveal the flowing pattern of the layered steel. The result is a line of knives that are sharp, durable, and corrosion resistant, with incredible edge retention and a beautiful aesthetic that adds style to any kitchen. The Shun Classic line offers a wide assortment of both traditional culinary blade shapes and cutting-edge designs, so you can always find the right knife for the task.
