Shun 8" Classic Chef Knife

If there's one knife you can’t live without, it’s this one. The Shun Classic 8-inch Chef’s Knife is the ultimate all-purpose blade, designed for a wide range of kitchen tasks. Its ideal length makes it perfect for slicing, dicing, and chopping fruits, vegetables, proteins, and more. The wide blade keeps your knuckles safely off the cutting board and doubles as a convenient tool for transferring ingredients from board to pan. Thanks to its gently curved belly, you can effortlessly rock the blade through fresh herbs and spices for a precise, fine mince. Plus, the Shun Classic’s thinner blade makes it lighter and less fatiguing to use than traditional European-style chef’s knives.
