Narukami Chef's Knife, 10 Shun Black Edition

The Shun Narukami Chef's Knife, an exquisite fusion of carbon steel prowess and SAN MAI stainless steel elegance, delivers unmatched performance. For those who prefer a more extended cutting tool, the 10-inch version offers an advantage, granting enhanced leverage for slicing larger ingredients with ease. If carbon steel's superior edge is your preference, the Narukami knife is tailored to your needs. However, like all carbon steels, Blue II necessitates careful handling, emphasizing immediate cleaning and drying to preserve its distinctive patina that both strengthens the edge and protects it over time.

Narukami, a term translating to "thunderbolt" in Japanese, commands attention with its striking design, catering to professional chefs and enthusiasts of fine carbon steel craftsmanship. Its ergonomically crafted micarta handle ensures a comfortable grip, providing perfect balance and control during each slicing motion.

Combining traditional Japanese hand forging techniques with modern materials, Shun knives are innovative masterpieces rooted in centuries-old tradition. Each knife, meticulously crafted through at least 100 hand-finishing steps, upholds Shun's unwavering commitment to quality, honoring their rich heritage.

Employing high-carbon Japanese blue steel #2, this Shun knife not only boasts exceptional durability but also integrates stainless steel cladding that enhances food release and minimizes drag, streamlining your slicing experience. As a must-have for discerning cooks, the Shun Narukami Chef's Knife represents the pinnacle of culinary tools.
