Description
The Knife That Does Everything In Between
Too big for a paring knife, too small for a chef's knife — the Shun Classic 6" Utility Knife fills that gap with precision. Whether you're trimming meat, slicing sandwiches, breaking down herbs, or detail-cutting fruit, this is the blade you'll reach for without thinking twice.
What Sets It Apart
-
VG-10 Steel Core: Shun's proprietary high-carbon stainless steel holds a razor-sharp edge longer than standard kitchen steel — less maintenance, more performance.
-
16-Layer Damascus Cladding: 16 layers of SUS410 high-carbon stainless steel on each side protect the core and create the stunning wave pattern that's become a Shun signature.
-
Precise 16° Edge: Ground to a fine 16° angle per side for effortless slicing through proteins, vegetables, and everything in between.
-
D-Shaped Ebony PakkaWood Handle: Moisture-resistant, beautifully finished, and shaped to prevent twisting in the hand — comfortable for right- and left-handed cooks alike.
-
Pointed Tip, Straight Blade: Ideal for detail work and controlled cuts where a larger knife would be overkill.
Backed for Life
Every Shun Classic knife includes a limited lifetime warranty against manufacturer defects and Shun's free lifetime sharpening service. Hand wash and dry to keep the blade and handle in peak condition.
