The hollow-ground indentations on this blade break that suction, allowing each slice to fall cleanly away. The result is faster prep, cleaner cuts, and less frustration. Everything else is pure Shun Classic: VG-MAX steel clad in 32 layers of Damascus stainless steel, bead-blasted to reveal its flowing wave-like pattern, with an ebony PakkaWood® D-shaped handle that's as comfortable after an hour of prep as it is at the first cut.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCare \u0026amp; Maintenance\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHand wash only — never dishwasher\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDry immediately after washing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHone regularly with a Shun honing steel to maintain the 16° edge\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSharpen with a whetstone or professional sharpening service when needed\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStore on a magnetic strip or in a knife block to protect the blade\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Hale Imports","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":29796005445710,"sku":"DM0719","price":199.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0261\/1819\/3230\/products\/DM0719_3_17ece3cb-0634-4289-b191-b3eae3139e39.jpg?v=1572264136","url":"https:\/\/chefandaknife.com.au\/products\/shun-classic-scalloped-chefs-knife-203mm","provider":"Chef \u0026 a knife","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
