Shun Classic Chef Gyuto 180mm

In Japan, this knife is called a gyuto, the Japanese counterpart to the chef's knife. It's a versatile tool suitable for meat, fish, and vegetables. While its blade profile is narrower than that of a traditional chef's knife, it still provides ample knuckle clearance when cutting on a board. If you seek a lighter, more agile multi-purpose kitchen knife, the Shun Classic Asian Cook's Knife will quickly become your favorite for various food prep tasks.
