Shun Premier 5.5" Nakiri Knife, Handcrafted Japanese Vegetable Knife, VG-MAX Core with Damascus Stainless Steel Cladding, Pakkawood Handle, Slicing Tool for Professional and Home Chefs

Add one of the top 3 must-have kitchen knives to your collection with the Shun Premier 6-inch Ultimate Utility Knife. This cooking knife features an unusually wide blade with a rounded tip perfect for spreading mayo. Low-frequency serrations on the blade are ideal for slicing delicate, thin-skinned fruits and vegetables or working like a bread knife to cut a sandwich in half without tearing. Utility knives are also called sandwich knives because they work well for almost every task involved in making a sandwich - from cutting thin-skinned vegetables like tomatoes to preparing meats and cheeses. The Premier Utility 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. The hammered TSUCHIME finish is beautiful and helps release food easily when cutting. The walnut-finished, contoured Pakkawood handle is comfortable to use and offers a secure grip with excellent control. In Japan, the blade is more than a tool - it's a tradition. Housed in Seki City, the heart of the Japanese cutlery industry, Shun Fine Cutlery is dedicated to maintaining this ancient tradition. Each knife is handcrafted by highly skilled artisans to produce blades of unparalleled quality and beauty. We also leverage modern, premium materials and state-of-the-art technology to provide Shun quality to millions of professional chefs and avid home cooks throughout the world.
