8" Chef's Knife - Shun Kazahana
20cm (8″) Chef’s Knife
YOUR NEW BEST FRIEND IN THE KITCHEN
If there is one knife that you simply can’t be without, it’s this one. The Shun Kazahana 8 -inch Chef’s Knife is an all-purpose blade ideal for a wide variety of cutting tasks. This size is the perfect length for slicing, dicing, and chopping small to medium-sized fruits, vegetables, and other foods. 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 Chef’s knife can be gently “rocked” through fresh herbs or spices to produce a very fine mince. Shun Kazahana’s thinner blades makes it lighter and less tiring to use than comparable European-style Chef’s knives.
SHUN KAZAHANA LINE—
In Japanese, “Kazahana” means “snow that flickers like petals dancing in a clear sky. Influenced by a Kanso design principle based on the Zen philosophy of simplicity, the Shun Kazahana collection was designed with only the indispensable elements in mind. Plainly put: with these knives, nothing is lacking and nothing is superfluous. In Kazahana, Shun took away anything that does not matter and kept everything that does—high-performance steel, razor-sharp edge, perfect balance, and precision cutting control. The steel is Japanese AUS10A, a highly refined, high-carbon, vanadium stainless steel that takes a razor-sharp edge and holds it longer. Kazahana’s lustrous satin finish hides scratches and has exceptional food release properties. The handles are made of symmetrical and contoured polished black Pakkawood for longevity and beauty, that instills confidence with every slice. Full-tang construction provides strength, balance, and easy cutting control. Like all Shun knives, Kazahana is sharpened to a 16° cutting angle on each side to cut cleanly and help preserve food’s freshness and best taste.
