ITEM#: DM0741
Product Overview
The Shun Classic Ultimate Utility Knife is a multi-functional powerhouse, designed to handle a variety of kitchen tasks with precision and versatility. Its 6-inch blade features a low-frequency serrated edge, perfect for slicing delicate thin-skinned fruits and vegetables without crushing them. The broad blade with a curved belly allows for a smooth rocking motion on the cutting board, while the rounded tip makes it ideal for spreading condiments like mayo on sandwiches before cutting them cleanly, like a bread knife, without tearing.

Crafted with Shun’s proprietary VG-MAX steel core, renowned for exceptional edge retention, the blade is clad with 34 layers of stainless Damascus steel on each side (68 total), offering durability, corrosion resistance, and a stunning, flowing pattern. Hand-sharpened to a 16° single-bevel edge, it delivers razor-sharp performance, enhanced by a ground and bead-blasted finish that reduces drag for smoother cuts. Handcrafted in Japan through over 100 artisanal steps, this utility knife is part of the Shun Classic line, blending beauty with top-tier functionality.
The D-shaped ebony PakkaWood handle is moisture-resistant and ergonomically designed for a comfortable, secure grip, ensuring control during detailed tasks. Its elegant aesthetic complements the blade’s performance, making this utility knife a standout in any kitchen.
