A simply beautiful way to cut a perfect slice

The Shun Classic Ham/Salmon Slicer features a long, narrow blade and hollow-ground indentations that help slices release from the blade smoothly. Because cured or smoked meats like ham and salmon tend to be denser and drier than a very moist meat (like prime rib, for instance) a slicing knife requires not only a long, narrow blade, but a blade with a little bit of flex to ensure smooth, easy slicing.

The Shun Classic Ham/Salmon Slicer is made of AUS8A, a high-carbon stainless steel that offers strength, hardness, and wear resistance, as well as a small amount of flex. You'll cut even the thinnest, professional-looking slices with ease.

The Shun Classic Ham/Salmon Slicer is part of the Shun Classic line of tasteful and contemporary designs. It shares the same D-shaped PakkaWood handle as the rest of the beautiful and versatile Shun Classic line. The Classic line offers you the widest assortment of both traditional culinary blade shapes and cutting-edge designs, so you can always find the right knife for the task.
