Classic 6" Damascus Utility Knife

Shun's six-inch utility knife combines the attributes of a chef's knife and paring knife into a single blade. Narrow and straight, it's ideal for any task where precise cuts are required. The slight curve allows for gentle rocking when mincing herbs and spices, while the nimble size makes it possible to comfortably cut objects in your hand as well as on a board.

Shun (rhymes with "moon") is a Japanese word for the precise moment of the year when a food is at the peak of its perfection. It is with this in mind that the company designs its knives and other cutlery. With a long history of forging metal, the Japanese brand has made good on its promise, and provides a collection that lets you perform at your peak.
