## Summary description

The KAI Shun Classic Chef's knife features a 15 cm stainless steel blade, designed for precision cutting and durability. Ideal for professional chefs and home cooks alike, it offers excellent balance and control for various kitchen tasks.

## Long description

The KAI Shun Classic chef's knife with a 15 cm stainless steel blade is part of the Shun damascus series, manufactured in Japan. It combines a VG-MAX steel core with 32-layer stainless damask cladding to provide exceptional hardness, corrosion resistance and edge retention. The convex blade geometry and manual honing deliver a precise, long-lasting cutting edge while the balanced weight supports extended use in professional and home kitchens.
Advantages
The VG-MAX core (approximately 61±1 HRC) gives the blade superior hardness and edge stability, while the 32-layer damask cladding refines the grain pattern and improves corrosion resistance. Manual finishing and a convex grind produce a very sharp edge suitable for fine slicing and controlled cutting. Each knife is individually finished, resulting in a distinctive damask pattern and consistent performance.
Suitable for
 Precision slicing of vegetables, fruits and boneless meats
 Everyday professional kitchen tasks where control and sharpness are required
 Home cooks seeking a durable, well-balanced chef's knife

How to use
Use the chef's knife for precise cutting motions: employ a smooth slicing action rather than heavy chopping to preserve the edge. For most tasks, hold the knife with a secure grip and guide ingredients with the non-dominant hand using a claw grip. Avoid cutting through bone or frozen items to prevent chipping. After use, rinse and dry the blade promptly and store it in a safe place such as a knife block or magnetic strip.
Usage recommendations
To maintain optimal sharpness and performance, hone the blade regularly with a ceramic rod and have it professionally sharpened when required. Clean by hand with mild detergent and dry immediately; do not use abrasive cleaners or put the knife in a dishwasher.
