The VG-MAX steel core is clad in layers of Damascus stainless steel - and near the edge, where the steels meet, an undulating line forms that echoes the hamon of a traditionally tempered samurai sword. The hammered tsuchime finish creates a series of hollow-ground cavities along the blade that reduce drag and help food release cleanly. For cooks who find a 20cm chef's knife unwieldy, or who simply prefer the quick, responsive feel of a shorter blade, this is the knife. The contoured walnut-coloured PakkaWood® handle nestles comfortably in the hand, while the embossed end cap adds balance and a premium finish.\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":45918426071331,"sku":"TDM0723","price":205.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0261\/1819\/3230\/files\/image_11805706-ebf4-46b5-b307-d41c7b70a463.jpg?v=1708514607","url":"https:\/\/chefandaknife.com.au\/products\/shun-premier-chefs-knife-152mm","provider":"Chef \u0026 a knife","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
