Shun Classic Blonde 3.5” Paring Knife, Blonde PakkaWood Handle, Full Tang VG-Max Blade

Brand: Shun

Color: Blonde

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.

Details: The Shun Classic Blonde 3. 5-inch Paring Knife is the most essential kitchen knife every cook should have on hand, second only to the chef's knife. Suited for peeling and slicing tasks rather than for chopping, this little knife is an elegant companion in the kitchen or for snacking at the table. Meat, fish, or vegetables, the refined and accurate cuts enabled by Shun knives may lead to some of the best cooking (and eating) experiences you and your guests will ever have. Crafted from our proprietary VG-MAX cutting steel with Damascus cladding that resists corrosion, holds an edge, and serves to aid the knife's passage through its subject. As with all Shun cutlery, you receive free sharpening for life at our office in Tualatin, Oregon – see packaging for more details. Hand wash only
