Shun Classic line of tasteful and contemporary cutlery. The Shun Classic line features beautiful Damascus-clad blades and D-shaped ebony PakkaWood® handles. Yet behind these handcrafted knives' beauty is function: razor-sharp blades offering top performance. Shun's proprietary high-performance VG-MAX steel, which provides incredible edge retention, is clad with Damascus stainless steel, then ground and bead-blasted, revealing the flowing pattern of the layered steel. The result is a line of knives that are sharp, durable, and corrosion resistant, as well as beautiful to behold. 

Features:

• Made of advanced high-performance steel that is so hard that the blades can be made thinner, lighter, and sharper
• 32 layers of special alloy creates the beautiful damacus patterns, protecting it from rust and giving it an incredibly sharp edge
  
• Hardwood handle that is moisture resistant and durable
• 16° cutting angle that is extremely sharp, yet lasts a long time
