Description
No kitchen is complete without at least one paring knife. Add this essential tool to your collection with the Shun Cutlery 3.5-inch Classic Blonde Paring Knife. This small kitchen knife is extremely nimble – giving you complete control over the tip and edge of the blade. It's perfect for peeling, coring, trimming, decorating, and performing other tasks. It's the ideal tool for delicate detail work on fruits and vegetables or cutting small foods like garlic cloves or ginger. The Classic Paring Knife is constructed with Shun's proprietary VG-Max cutting core with 68 layers of stainless Damascus cladding for a strong, corrosion-resistant, stain-resistant, razor-sharp 16-degree edge that glides through food. The D-shaped, blonde Pakkawood handle is durable, beautiful, comfortable for both left- and right-handed users, and doesn't harbor bacteria.
Features
- Thirty-four layers of stainless Damascus cladding surround the high-carbon VG-MAX core of this hardworking, small knife blade.
- The beautifully modern, D-shaped, blonde PakkaWood handle encases the full composite tang blade, reducing unwanted rotation and improving grip for right and left-handed chefs alike.
- One of the most essential knives in the Western chef's kitchen, Shun's Japanese-made knife features a short, sharp blade for peeling, coring, trimming, and more.
- Handcrafted in Japan this kitchen knife is ground and honed to a razor sharp 16-degree edge out of the box. It’s balanced immediately forward of the bolster for increased precision and injury prevention when used in hand.
- Santoku, nakiri, boning, slicing, or steak - Shun blades glide through food when used in a back-and-forth or rocking motion that applies some force parallel to what's being cut, letting the edge do the work.
