Shun Classic Blonde 6.5 in Master Utility Knife

A utility knife excels at close-to-hand work. Think of things like topping bell peppers and carving out the white membrane for stuffed bells. Slicing mushrooms, halving cherry tomatoes, mincing garlic, etc.


The problem with most utility knives is the small amount of knuckle clearance. The Shun Master Utility is basically a small version of a western style kiritsuke. This design provides plenty of knuckle clearance with a flat, razor-sharp cutting edge.
