Kai Shun Premier Chefs Knife 150mm
The Shun Premier Chefs Knife 150mm is a compact European-style chef’s knife for quick, controlled prep. It has a VG-MAX Damascus blade with a hand-sharpened 16° edge.
Why Choose the 15cm Chef’s Knife?
The 150mm blade handles the same tasks as a full-size chef’s knife: slicing, dicing, chopping and rocking cuts through herbs. The shorter length gives extra control and quicker handling. It suits cooks who prefer a lighter, more nimble chef’s knife.
About Shun Premier
Shun Premier knives have thin, light blades for fast, nimble handling. Each blade has a VG-MAX steel core clad in 34 layers of stainless Damascus on each side. A wavy line called a hamon forms where the steels meet. The hand-hammered tsuchime finish helps food release from the blade.
