As part of the Shun Classic line, the Shun Classic Ken Onion Series shares the same materials and Pattern Damascus clad blades as Shun Classic. But the Ken Onion series elevates ergonomics to an art form. Every aspect, from the shape of the blade to the way the handle fits snugly into the user's hand, has been designed for superlative comfort and control. The arc of the sleek Pakkawood handle provides stability, while the rock of the blade's belly enables users of any height to cut with ease and control. The widened bolster guides users to the correct grip and reduces tension during cutting, making this line ideal for users who have large quantities of prep work or those who suffer from arthritis or carpal tunnel syndrome.

Similar to the Shun Classic line, but with a curvier profile.
  • Designed by Ken Onion, one of the most revered custom knife designers in the world. Ken has won more knife design awards than any other single blade designer.
  • Designed by a man with no culinary experience, an advantage because he addressed the needs of chefs from a fresh perspective with no preconceived notions.
  • The handsome, stick-resistant blade is combined with Ken Onion's signature ergonomic handle design and unique blade sweep found only in a Ken Onion knife.
  • The shape of the blade is designed to maximize the glide of the blade across the cutting board, making it easy for chefs of any height to use without shoulder tension.
  • Blunted blade nose, like that of a Santoku, allows the cook to scoop chopped ingredients off of the board.
  • Ambidextrous handle design and stability bump on the lower portion of the handle provide maximum comfort and confidence while cutting.
  • Inner curve on each side of the bolster forms perfect thumb and index finger rests; widened bolster releases tension in forearm.
  • Knife is "zero balanced" at this center point, another distinctive ergonomic feature.
  • Handle is curved downward to more closely match the shape of the palm, eliminating gaps between the hand and the handle.
  • Handles are slightly elevated to allow for full contact between the knife and the cutting surface without the cook's knuckles getting in the way.
  • Many of the 37 steps required to manufacture these truly unique knives utilize extensive hand crafting techniques, requiring trained craftsmen.
  • Hand wash and dry recommended; limited lifetime warranty.
  • NSF Approved for commercial use.
