Shun Premier 8" Chef’s Knife – TDM0706 – Made in Japan – Authorized USA Dealer
Your chef’s knife will be the most-used knife in your kitchen, so it should feel like a natural extension of your hand. The Shun Premier 8" Chef’s Knife is designed to deliver that comfort and confidence. Lightweight, agile and extremely sharp, it brings Japanese craftsmanship and modern performance together in one versatile everyday tool.
The Premier series features thinner blades than many European-style chef’s knives, making this 8" model lighter and less tiring to use during long prep sessions. Its razor-sharp edge and balanced profile handle a full range of tasks, from slicing and dicing to chopping and mincing. The wide blade keeps knuckles clear of the cutting board and works well for scooping ingredients and transferring them from board to pan. With its gentle belly curve, the knife can also be rocked smoothly through herbs and spices for a fine, even mince.
