Shun Narukami 6-in. Utility Knife

Description

You can think of a utility knife as a smaller version of a chef’s knife because, like the Narukami Chef’s Knife, the Narukami Utility Knife is quite versatile. It’s ideal for peeling, coring, trimming, slicing, chopping, and dicing. Its smaller-size gives you complete control over the tip and edge of the blade.

The Shun Narukami Utility Knife is part of the exciting Shun Narukami line that provides exceptional handcrafted Shun quality at an amazing price. Narukami uses Shun’s proprietary Composite Blade technology to bring together a San Mai upper with a Japanese Blue II carbon steel core that creates a gorgeous cutting edge that is easy to sharpen. This technology puts high-performance material exactly where it’s neededon 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 sword hamon lines. While Narukami’s blade shapes and handle design are traditional Japanese, the Micarta handle material provides a contemporary look, secure grip and balance, and is easy to maintain.
