Shun TDM0723 Premier Chef's Knife, 6-Inch & Kai Diamond and Ceramic Retractable Knife Sharpener (Bundle)

The Shun Premier Chef's Knife has a slightly smaller handle than the 8" chefs knife, and is made with VG-Max for its cutting edge. Although it is ambidextrous, the handle may be more ergonomic in other Shun series. Customers have reported that it does not stain easily and the blade is thin and hardened for edge retention, but can chip if used too roughly. The custom engraving is small but quick to deliver. Feedback on the knife's sharpness varies, with some customers saying that it did not meet their expectations, while others noted that it was incredibly sharp but required drying to prevent rusting. The knife is also quite heavy and may require some time getting used to.
