Kai, a Japanese industry partner of Kershaw Knives, has introduced Shun, a series of kitchen knives suitable for enthusiasts and collectors.

Forged from a sheet of VG-10 stainless steel folded and twisted 32 times, to create the typical Damascus design on both sides of the blade. The knife thus has excellent razor-sharp cutting capabilities, penetration and edge retention unmatched on any other steel blade.

Currently, these knives represent the pinnacle of Japanese technology in the culinary field, and the quality doesn't stop only with the steel used, but continues with the attention to workmanship and materials used, such as the splendid black Pakkawood used for the ergonomic handles.

Shun Classic is one of the flagship lines of the Kai Group (which currently also includes the Kershaw and Zero Tolerance brands), a famous Japanese manufacturer of knives and razors since the early 1900s. This is a series of knives and kitchen accessories suitable for professionals and enthusiasts.

The blades are made of rolled steel consisting of an inner layer of VG-10 stainless steel and two outer cheeks of 32-layer damask. The result is excellent cutting capacity combined with excellent edge retention and good flexibility, which is also guaranteed by the differentiated tempering.
