Product Description
Shun Classic Left-Handed 6-Inch Stainless-Steel Utility Knife: Kitchen & Dining. Hand washing the knife is recommended. Made from VG-10 stainless steel, Shun knives are specially constructed to be harder, less brittle, but also more flexible than traditional steel formulations. The VG-10 core is clad with 16 full layers of SUS410 high-carbon stainless steel on each side, for a total of 33 layers. These layers not only protect the VG-10, they create an exquisitely detailed surface reminiscent of Damascus or pattern-forged steel, the kind once used for Samurai swords. As a result, the knives are simply stunning to look at--much like antique Damascus knives but without their tendency to rust. The 6-inch blade of this left-handed utility knife is the perfect in-between size for dozens of day-to-day tasks. Use it to cut potato rounds for home fries, apples for apple pie, or thin slices of red onion to dress up a favorite burger. Like many Asian-style knives, its handle is especially suited to smaller users. In contrast to the traditional round profile, however, Shun handles are D-shaped to prevent the knife from twisting in the hand, which provides extra stability and a firm grip. The handle is made from ebony-colored PakkaWood, a fused blend of hardwood veneers imbued with waterproof resin that combines the warmth and traditional look and feel of wood with the strength and durability of plastic. The offset stainless-steel bolster is designed for ergonomic comfort and maximum safety, while a stainless-steel end cap provides the finishing touch. The utility knife measures approximately 10 by 2 inches and carries a limited lifetime warranty.
