Shun Classic 6.5” Master Utility Knife

The versatile Shun Classic 6.5 inch Master Utility Knife combines the nimbleness of a utility knife with the do-it-all capabilities of a Chef's knife. The blade is slightly longer and significantly wider, so you can accomplish a range of food prep tasks while enjoying the ease of use. The extra-width at the heel and a slightly curved belly enables rocking cuts to easily mince spices and herbs. A larger handle gives you a secure, comfy, and confident grip as you work. Slice, dice, shred, or potion you can do it all! While the blade is extremely strong and will hold its edge, Japanese Steel does not have flexibility so we do not advise using this knife on bone in meats, frozen fruits, or stone cutting boards.

Faraday's carries the Shun Classic, Shun Premier and Shun Kanso kitchen knife lines made by KAI USA. The beautiful Classic line of Shun Japanese cutlery features the look and benefits of Damascus steel, yet without its rusting problems. This look is achieved by 16 layers of high-carbon stainless steel, wrapped around the VG-10 center core. The D-shaped handle rests precisely in the curve of the fingers. The black PakkaWood handles provide the beauty of genuine wood, but since the wood is impregnated with a waterproof resin, the handles are as durable as plastic and dishwasher safe! (Although we NEVER recommend putting your knives in the dishwasher!)
