The patented scalloped edge is a revolutionary new development by KAI. From the centre
the scallops of the blade run into opposing directions, slightly slanted to the outside.
Thus bread is not torn but neatly cut with every move of the blade. Crumbs are reduced
to an absolute minimum.
The Shun chef’s knife series is one of the world’s most extensive knife series made of damask steel. It is well received among the cooking elite and ambitious hobby chefs.
Shun professional chef’s knives are made from a newly developed stainless damask steel with 32 layers.
The inner layer is made from V-gold-10 steel. This steel is highly resistant to corrosion, extremely hard (61±1 HRC, 1.0% carbon, 1.5% cobalt) and the reason for the blade being incomparably and lastingly sharp.
