Shun Premier 8 Inch Chef's Knife — Review and Information.

This is a video where I show off the Shun Premier 8" Chef's Knife and explain its features.

Essentially, the Shun Premier is the "flagship" Shun line. It uses VG-MAX Steel (~61 Hardness) sharpened to a 16 degree angle. On top of that, it has 34 layers of steel folded on itself, giving it a beautiful damascus design. Finally, the upper 1/2 or so of the blade is hammered. The end result is a knife that truly is "premier."

It's a very quick video of the knife, just to give you an idea of what it looks like and what it is all about. Check out the video and let me know if you have any other questions.

NOTE: I'll be making quick videos showing all of the different knives and comparing the various lines of Shun to not only other brands, but each other as well!
