With this wonderful but very rare 8-inch (20.3cm) chef’s knife, (KDM-0017) in your hand, pretty much anything’s possible. The multi-purpose knife is great for: chopping onions and potatoes for a soup; slicing mushroom and peppers for a pizza; mincing garlic and fresh herbs, and much more. Its long sharp blade cuts through vegetables, meats, and fish smoothly and efficiently. The chef’s knife features durable construction consisting of SG-2 powdered steel, which holds a 64 Rockwell hardness and offers a higher density and grain structure, with no imperfections or weak points. The SG-2 blade combines two different kinds of steel–a nickel alloy and a high-carbon steel–for exceptional strength and resilience. The knife not only provides a razor-sharp blade with a hard, chip-resistant cutting edge, but it also comes with a beautiful, acid-etched Damascus pattern for a distinguished appearance. Other highlights include a full-tang blade, from the tip to the end of the handle, for added weight and style; a bolster-free design for easy sharpening; a double-riveted ergonomic handle made of Pakkawood with an angled end cap; and a comfortable design suitable for both right- and left-handed users. Made in Japan and embossed with the Shun logo, the 8-inch chef’s knife carries a limited lifetime warranty and should be washed by hand for best results. I sharpened it on a Ken Onion Worksharp system and it’s wicked sharp!
