Shun Classic Blonde 6" Utility Knife (DM0701W)

The Shun Classic Blonde 6" Utility Knife (DM0701W) features a narrow blade and is used to bridge the gap between a chef’s knife and paring knife. Often, a chef’s knife is simply too big and cumbersome for select slicing tasks, whereas a paring knife with its limited length is too short. The utility knife shape is the perfect in-between to get all your medium-sized tasks done. Shun Classic Blonde is everything you love about the venerable Shun Classic series, but with a beautiful blonde Pakkawood handle. Crafted to exactly the same standards as its sister line, the Shun Classic Blonde knives feature gorgeous Damascus clad blades of layered stainless steel around a proprietary VG-MAX cutting core, offering maximum cutting performance, strength, corrosion resistance, and of course a razor-sharp 16° edge. These handcrafted knife are design with a full composite tang so each Classic remains lightweight, yet perfectly balanced. Finished off with a D-shaped Blonde Pakkawood handle, the Shun Classics are comfortable and offer a secure, traditional Japanese grip. For a darker look, see the Shun Classic 6" Utility Knife .
