Kai Shun Pro Sho Series Deba VG10 Steel 16.5 cm Japanese Kitchen Knife

The new Shun Pro Sho knife series by kai masterly combines classic Japanese design with modern details and high-quality material. The exclusive quality and the unique look of the series are outstanding characteristics of the long tradition of the kai products and make every single knife a special piece. Thanks to its form, the dark Pakka wood hilt of the Shun Pro Sho Series is a true hand charmer. The blade of VG10 steel receives an ornamental tooling from an innovative etching technology. Sanded on one side, the extraordinarily sharp knives run through the cutting good smoothly and precise, and fully meet the requirements of a professional cutting tool.

With its traditional, asymmetric Japanese blade shape the Shun Pro series complements the Shun chef’s knife collection. The blades are made throughout from the Damascus series’ core material, the V-Gold-10 steel. This top class series of Japanese chef’s knives is not only highly rated among Sushi chefs all over the world but increasingly popular in European kitchens. The asymmetric blade with the one-sided hollow-ground on the opposing side delivers a unique cutting experience that cannot be matched by most European blades. As an optional extra Shun Pro knives come with a top-quality wooden sheath for optimum blade protection.

Deba is Japanese for 'jutting blade'. The Deba is traditionally used in Japan as a hatchet. This stable and heavy knife possesses a strong, wide blade with a single cutting edge. The front of the blade is mainly used to fillet fish. The rear part of the blade is stronger and is used, among other applications, for dissecting small chicken or fish bones.
