Knife Description:
 
Hand-crafted in Japan, the Shun 6“ Ultimate Utility Kitchen Knife is part of the exciting Shun Sora line that provides exceptional handcrafted Shun quality at an amazing price.
 
An amazingly multi-functional Knife
 
It doesn't look traditional, but the Shun Sora Ultimate Utility Knife is amazingly versatile. The cutting edge offers a low-frequency serration that makes it perfect for slicing delicate thin-skinned fruits and vegetables. The wide blade with its rounded tip also makes it a great knife for spreading mayo on a sandwich, then the serrations work like a bread knife to cut the sandwich in half without tearing. Try it and you'll be surprised at how often you'll find yourself reaching for this Multi-function Kitchen Helper.
 
Sora uses Shun's proprietary Composite Blade Technology to bring together a VG10 San Mai Cutting Edge with a Japanese 420J Stainless Steel Upper. This technology puts high-performance material exactly where it's needed—on the edge. The two blade sections are laser cut, then fit together like pieces of a jigsaw puzzle. Braze welding permanently joins them.
 
The attractive wavy pattern at the joint is based on traditional Japanese Word Hamon Lines. While Sora's blade shapes and handle design are traditional Japanese, the patented, textured PP/TPE Polymer Blend Handle Material provides a contemporary look, secure grip and balance, and is easy to maintain.
 
This classical and unique Utility Knife is delivered in a Cardboard Gift Box.
