Shun Premier Series

The Shun Premier is a hand-hammered Japanese kitchen knife that gets attention before it even touches a cutting board. Each blade is individually hammered by a skilled artisan to create a distinctive tsuchime finish. The technique also reduces drag when slicing, so food releases cleanly from the blade.

Underneath is a VG-MAX steel core clad in 68 layers of Damascus stainless steel, holding a razor-sharp 16 degree edge per side. The walnut-toned PakkaWood handle is contoured and moisture-resistant, built for both aesthetics and performance.

A great choice if you're buying your first serious Japanese chef's knife, or looking for a premium gift for a cook who has everything. Browse the full Premier range at Chef & a Knife with fast shipping across Australia.
