Shun Classic Master Utility Knife

The Shun Classic Master Utility Knife excels at close-to-hand work like topping bell peppers, carving out the white membrane of peppers, slicing mushrooms, halving cherry tomatoes, mincing garlic, etc. This is a handy utility knife that is designed as a "mini-kiritsuke" and can be used on fruits, vegetables, meats and cheeses. With more knuckle clearance than your average blade this is also a great choice for cooks who like to do their bulk prep with a shorter knife.
