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

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

Essentially, the Shun Classic is the "foundation" or "go-to" of the 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 each side (68 layers total!), giving it a beautiful damascus design.

The Classic line also has an extremely ergonomic, "D-Shaped" handle that fits great into right and left hands, reducing fatigue.

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.

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!

hello, Knife wizard, I am from India, have many doubts.
considering heavy duty usage at home, need lifetime warranty since its a costly affair and how can I make it smooth enough apart from the rod sharpener, should i take it to shop for further sharpness. which one will u suggest me between Shun and Wusthof?
