Shun Premier Blonde Master Utility 165mm
The Shun Premier Master Utility Knife seamlessly blends the agility of a utility knife with the versatility of a chef's knife. Its slightly elongated and notably wider blade facilitates a variety of food prep tasks, maintaining the maneuverability of a compact knife. The added width at the heel and gently curved belly are perfect for rocking cuts, making mincing herbs and spices effortless. A larger handle ensures a secure and comfortable grip, enhancing confidence as you work.
The knife features a downturned tip akin to a kiritsuke, providing extra durability.
Whether you're slicing, dicing, shredding, or portioning, this elegant and functional kitchen knife handles it all with ease.

- Versatile Design: Combines the nimbleness of a utility knife with the multifunctional capabilities of a chef's knife.
- Superior Cutting Core: Made from VG-MAX, the latest in the VG line of "super steels," offering wear resistance, corrosion resistance, and a finely sharp edge at a 16° angle on each side.
- Durable Construction: 68 micro layers of Damascus cladding provide beauty and support to the core, while the hammered TSUCHIME finish helps release food effortlessly during cutting.
- Comfortable Handle: The contoured Pakkawood handle with a Blonde color finish offers exceptional comfort and control, resisting moisture for long-lasting use.
- Expert Craftsmanship: Handcrafted in Japan, ensuring high-quality construction and performance.
