This beautiful knife is lightweight and offers an extremely comfortable grip. The six-inch length offers an alternative to the 8" for those who prefer a smaller knife. The razor-sharp edge are ideal for slicing, dicing, and chopping a wide range of vegetables, meats, fruits, and many others. The cutting core is made of Shun’s proprietary VG-MAX “super steel” to take and hold a precision edge. Layered damascus clad supports the strong core and provides additional stain resistance.
The hand hammered tsuchime finish helps with quick release of food while cutting. The contoured walnut Pakkawood handle fits great in your hand, almost making the knife an extension of your arm. This is the knife you will continuously reach for in the kitchen. Handcrafted in Japan, this is some of Shun’s finest work.
