Experience the Knife That Defines a Kitchen

The Shun Classic Chef's Knife 20cm is the cornerstone of the Shun Classic line - an all-purpose blade that handles everything from breaking down proteins to finely mincing herbs, with a lightness and precision that European-style knives simply can't match.

The Specs

  • Steel: Proprietary VG-MAX cutting core, 32-layer Damascus stainless steel cladding
  • Edge: Hand-sharpened 16° double-bevel (32° inclusive)
  • Blade length: 20.3cm (8 in.)
  • Handle: D-shaped ebony PakkaWood®
  • Origin: Handcrafted in Japan

Built for Everything

The wide blade keeps knuckles safely off the board and doubles as a bench scraper when transferring ingredients from board to pan. The curved belly is perfectly suited to rocking cuts through fresh herbs and spices. The VG-MAX steel core is clad in 32 layers of Damascus stainless steel - ground and bead-blasted to reveal its flowing, wave-like pattern - while the ebony PakkaWood® D-shaped handle provides a secure, fatigue-free grip through even the longest prep sessions. Lighter than its European counterparts, sharper than most.

Care and Maintenance

  • Hand wash only - never dishwasher
  • Dry immediately after washing
  • Hone regularly with a Shun honing steel to maintain the 16° edge
  • Sharpen with a whetstone or professional sharpening service when needed
  • Store on a magnetic strip or in a knife block to protect the blade
