Kai Shun Classic White Utility Knife 15cm

In size, the Shun Classic Utility Knife is between a chef's knife and a paring knife, but its blade is narrower and straighter. It is perfect for a multitude of small tasks that require more precise cuts, such as trimming broccoli, green beans, or other small vegetables. Some cooks like to use it in their hand, too—almost like a large paring knife. Others like its smaller size as an alternative to the chef’s knife. Its very slightly curved belly enables it to do moderate rocking cuts. It’s nimble enough to peel an onion in hand, then slice it up in short order.

The tradition and skills handed down from the swordsmiths of ancient Japan have always been an inspiration and integral part of every Kai product since the company's foundation. Similarly, Kai Shun kitchen knives are made using a combination of state-of-the-art technology and long experience, and are highly esteemed all over the world. Each Shun knife is handcrafted in Japan and requires at least 100 meticulous steps to complete.

All Shun Classic knife purchases come in a beautifully presented gift box.
