Shun Sora Chef 8 in. VB0706

This is the place to start your Shun Sora collection. In Japan, the Sora Chef’s Knife would be called a gyuto. It’s used for the same purposes as a chef’s knife and all-around food preparation. But it has slightly less curve than a Western chef’s knife, which means it contacts the cutting board along with more of its length, so more food is cut per slice. The Sora has a gentle roll off the tip compared to the large roll of a Western-style knife, so the Sora needs to be lifted less, making cutting more efficient. What’s more, with Sora, you get handcrafted Japanese quality at a fantastic price.
