This nimble, razor-sharp paring knife with its straight, narrow blade ably handles a variety of prepping, trimming and paring tasks. A rippled Damascus finish is achieved by forging 34 layers of stainless steel on each side. Flexible, stick-resistant blade is hand ground to an exceptional 16-degree angle, then polished by hand. Impregnated with resin for durability, the beautiful blonde birch wood handle won't harbor bacteria and is comfortable for left- and right-hand use.
Each exquisite Shun knife is carefully crafted in a 100-step process inspired by ancient sword smiths. The amazing blades are created in Seki City, Japan's 700-year-old center for samurai swords.
