About This Item
- Shun Blue is designed for pros and home chefs alike who prefer the sharpenability and durability of a carbon steel blade. Handcrafted of Japanese “Blue 2” carbon steel, Shun Blue offers the advantages many chefs prefer in their heavy-use knives: excellent sharpness, good edge retention, and ease of resharpening.
- But Shun Blue offers an improvement over other carbon steel knives. Using traditional Japanese san mai blade construction, Shun artisans put a layer of mirror-polished stainless steel on both sides of the blue carbon steel cutting core. This makes maintenance simpler and it’s much easier for Blue to retain its handsome, professional look.
Blue carbon steel cutting core
Forms the core of the entire blade, all the way to the cutting edge. It is layered between mirror-polished stainless steel; provides excellent sharpness, edge retention, and easy sharpening.
San mai stainless steel cladding
Protects the blue carbon steel cutting core.
Razor-sharp 16° cutting edge
Hand sharpened to 16° angle each side for top performance; blade is double-bevel, flat ground.
Traditional Japanese handle
Octagon-shaped handles in grey PakkaWood provide a comfortable, secure grip. PakkaWood is beautiful, durable, and won’t harbor bacteria.
Includes saya
Wooden sheath protects the blade during storage.
Rabbet tang
Controls weight and enhances maneuverability; this is how samurai swords were commonly made.
