Product Description
Shun Ken Onion DM0513 Serrated 5-Inch Utility 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. This five-inch serrated utility knife 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 blade create air pockets that release food quickly, and the pointed tip aids in digging out potato eyes or fruit blemishes. The serrated edge is excellent for slicing bread, tomatoes, and cheese, and any home chef who loves creating gourmet sandwiches would be honored to receive this gift-boxed 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.
