Handcrafted Japanese Premier Knife: 6.5 Slim Utility Blade for Precision Cuts & Sandwich/Vegetable Prep

Enhance your culinary arsenal with the Shun Premier 6.5-inch Utility Knife, seamlessly bridging the gap between a chef's knife and a slender, straight paring knife. This versatile knife excels in tackling intricate tasks, such as precision trimming of broccoli, green beans, and other petite vegetables. Renowned for their versatility, utility knives are often referred to as sandwich knives, adept at handling every aspect of sandwich assembly, including slicing delicate tomatoes and prepping meats and cheeses.

Crafted with Shun's exclusive VG-Max cutting core, the knife boasts 68 layers of stainless Damascus cladding, ensuring a robust, corrosion-resistant edge that remains razor-sharp at a 16-degree angle. The striking hammered TSUCHIME finish not only adds visual appeal but also facilitates easy food release during chopping. The ergonomically designed handle, finished in warm walnut and contoured Pakkawood, provides comfort and a secure grip, enabling exceptional control.
