Kai, industria giapponese partner di Kershaw Knives, ha introdotto sul mercato Shun, una serie di coltelli da cucina adatti agli amanti ed ai collezionisti.

Forgiati da una lamina di acciaio inossidabile VG-10 ripiegata e ritorta per 32 volte, fino a creare il tipico disegno damasco su entrambe le facce della lama. Il coltello ha così eccellenti capacità di taglio a rasoio, penetrazione e tenuta del filo ineguagliate su qualsiasi altra lama in acciaio.

Attualmente questi coltelli rappresentano il top della tecnologia giapponese in campo culinario e la qualità non si ferma solo all'acciaio impiegato, ma continua con la cura delle lavorazioni e dei materiali utilizzati, come lo splendido legno di Pakkawood nero utilizzato per le manicature ergonomiche.

Lunghezza lama: 200 mm.
Spessore della lama: 2 mm.
Lunghezza totale: 340 mm.

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.

Today, these knives represent the pinnacle of Japanese culinary technology. The quality does not stop with the steel used, however, but continues with the care of the workmanship (sharpening in particular) and the materials used, such as the splendid Pakkawood used for the handles.
