FEATURES:
Shun Ken Onion Chef's Knife – 8” (20.3cm)
The wavy pattern on our blades is called a Damascus look; what gives it that pattern are 16 layers of SUS410 High Carbon Stainless Steel pounded to 3/1000th of an inch and then "clad" on each side of the VG10 core which gives the blade strength, stain resistance, and incredible cutting performance
VG-10 - composed of Carbon, Chromium, Cobalt, Manganese, Molybdenum, Silicon, and Vanadium - a new type of stainless steel that has a higher density allowing the steel to be tempered to a Rockwell hardness of 61, and still have the flexibility and strength to take and keep a perfect edge
Cutting edge is ground to an angle of 16 degrees making them extremely sharp; compared to most high-end knives, which are only ground to only 22 degrees
Blade profile reduces sticking, resulting in less damage to the food being cut and allowing for faster prep times
Unique Ken Onion® blade sweep
The exotic Japanese steels used in the cutting core allow them to hold these razor sharp edges without the need for excessive re-sharpening
