The Shun Classic Chefs Knife is shaped in the traditional European style and is an all purpose knife suitable for chopping, shredding, cutting, slicing and cubing all meat, fish and vegetables.

For a chefs knife that is particularly lightweight and highly maneuverable, try the Shun Classic 15cm Chefs Knife. Like all chefs knives, it is an all-purpose blade ideal for a wide variety of cutting tasks. While the 15cm length is perfect for slicing, dicing, and chopping small to medium-sized fruits, vegetables, and other foods, many cooks prefer this smaller size for its sheer nimbleness. The wide blade keeps knuckles off the cutting board and is extra handy when transferring cut food from board to pan. With its curved belly, the Chefs knife can be gently ""rocked"" through fresh herbs or spices to produce a very fine mince.

All Shun Classic knife purchases come in a beautifully presented gift box.
