Product Description
Shun Ken Onion DM0510 4.5-Inch Chefs Knife: Kitchen & Dining. Clad with 32 layers of high-carbon stainless steel (16 on each side), the blade resists rusting and maintain its razor edge for a considerable time. The smallest of the series chef's knives, this 4-3/8-inch size combines Shun technology and a lusciously curved black handle by award-winning custom knife designer Ken Onion. Made of a hardwood-resin fusion known as Pakkawood, the handle is designed to be truly ergonomic in order to increase control and reduce fatigue during long stretches of chopping, mincing, and slicing. The Damascus-style ripples on the upturned blade create air pockets that release food quickly, allowing clean, swift use. Less daunting than the larger chef's knives, and ideal for small tasks, the 4-3/8-incher makes a good Shun starter knife. Any chef would be honored to receive this beauty. Shun knives, made in Japan by KAI (Kershaw Cutlery), are quite possibly the sharpest knives on the market. A Shun edge, formed to an acute 16-degree angle, won't bend or waver due to the hardness of the VG-10 steel core used in its construction. Prized among chefs who value uniformly thin slices, a necessity in Japanese cuisine, Shun knives are covered by a lifetime warranty and should be washed and dried-carefully-by hand, then stored in a wooden block.
