Shun Elite knives offer an attractive design and excellent performance. The blades are made with a unique SG2 powdered steel that is hardened to 64-66 Rockwell where most kitchen knives use steel that has a Rockwell hardness of 56-58. This steel is more evenly blended, eliminating weak spots and other imperfections. The knife is then clad with stainless steel to provide strength, flexibility and corrosion protection. The result is that Shun Elite knives will hold their edge several times longer than other comparable knives while providing superior performance.
