The Shun collections include many knives common in the Japanese kitchen and the Premier collection is no exception. The Asian Cook’s Knife is known as a gyuto, the Japanese equivalent of a chef’s knife. The blade profile is narrower than the traditional Western chef’s knife and is lighter and more nimble. It’s ideal for meat and fish and performs beautifully on vegetables. The Premier Asian Cook’s Knife is sure to become a go-to knife for your food preparation tasks!
