{"product_id":"shun-classic-9-master-prep-knife","title":"Shun Classic 9\" Master Prep Knife","description":"\u003cp\u003eIn Japan, this knife style is known as a gyuto. It is the Japanese equivalent of the chef's knife. In other words, it is an all-purpose knife. Ideal for meat and fish, it performs beautifully on vegetables, too. Although the blade profile is narrower than the traditional chef's knife, it still offers plenty of knuckle clearance when cutting on a board. In addition to top Shun performance, what make this one special is the hollow-ground indentations on the side of the blade. They create small air pockets that reduce friction when cutting, making it easier to glide through the cut. If you've had problems with sticking, try a hollow-ground blade. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA traditional Japanese all-purpose knife, with hollow grinds on blade to help food release more easily\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProprietary VG-MAX cutting core is wear and corrosion resistant, strong, and very fine-grained to enable a razor-sharp, long-lasting 16° edge each side\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e34 layers of stainless Damascus cladding each side (68 total); support the core, add stain resistance, and help food release from the blade\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eD-shaped ebony-finished Pakkawood handles are comfortable for both left- and right-handed users; durable, beautiful, and won't harbor bacteria\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFull composite tang for light weight and perfect balance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHandcrafted in Japan\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Shun Knives","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45572382654650,"sku":"DM0784","price":219.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2790\/0742\/files\/dm0784_classicmaster_render.png?v=1770601566","url":"https:\/\/atlantagrillcompany.com\/products\/shun-classic-9-master-prep-knife","provider":"Atlanta Grill Company","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
