This is an unboxing, information session and quick review of the Shun Premier 10 inch Chef Knife - my first good chef knife. My only previous chef knife was a Victorinox.
The Shun Premier Chef Knife is their flagship. Their proprietary VG-MAX Steel (~61 Hardness) sharpened to a 16 degree angle. There are 34 layers of steel creating a beautiful damascus design with a hammered Tsuchime finish.
