Shun Premier Knives

Shun Premier knives combine a VG-MAX cutting core with 34 layers of stainless Damascus cladding on each side (68 total) and a hand-hammered tsuchime finish. The hammered surface helps food release from the blade as you cut, and it gives every Premier knife its distinctive appearance. Each blade is sharpened to 16° per side for a fine, keen edge. The contoured walnut PakkaWood handle resists moisture and provides a secure grip, and the Shun emblem appears on the blade and the end cap. Like every Shun knife, Premier knives are handcrafted in Seki City, Japan, and come with free lifetime sharpening and a limited lifetime warranty. Premier shares its steel, cladding, and edge with the Shun Classic line; the two differ in finish and handle.
