Shun Classic Western 8" Cook's Knife

The
Shun Classic 8-in. Western Cook's Knife offers a 22° cutting angle
instead of the 16° cutting angle of the rest of the Shun Classic line.
This less-acute edge provides additional strength that helps when
tackling heavier foods, for example winter squash or large heads of
cabbage. Nevertheless, this knife shares the thinner blades and
beautiful construction of the rest of the Shun Classic line. It's
perfect for a wide range of kitchen tasks, from slicing and dicing to
rocking cuts.
