## Description

Need a blade with the precision of a paring knife and the power of a chef's knife? The Shun Classic 6-inch Utility Knife provides both. The VG-MAX steel cutting core, an exclusive Shun formula, contains increased tungsten, enabling the blade to be sharpened into an incredibly fine edge, and additional carbon to improve strength and durability. The core is covered in 68 micro layers of Damascus steel, providing a beautiful pattern that appears after it has been bead-blasted. The utility knife offers a sleek look and high-quality performance. The narrow, straight blade is ideal for trimming, dicing, cutting and slicing. The quality of the blade demonstrates the innovation and advanced technology that Shun prioritizes in its knives. Derived from the Japanese word "shun," indicating peak ripeness of food, Shun strives to produce cutlery of peak perfection. Handmade by highly skilled specialists, their blades are functional works of art, an exquisite and essential addition to any kitchen.

Review: Five Stars - Best utility knife I've ever used. Razor sharp so care needed.
Review: Beautiful knife - Amazingly sharp knife, I mean really sharp. Beautiful to look at, nice to hold. Used more for delicate foods. The edge has a slight tendency to flake (chip) if you get too aggressive when sharpening. Don’t use anything more course than a 2000 wet stone.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Does this come with a sheath or box to keep in?**
A: Yes! I really nice black box!

**Q: The thickness of the spine please?**
A: Without proper measuring tools but just a ruler I would say slightly less than 2 mm, probably 1.85-1.9 mm. Very nice and well made knife however requires due care, particularly when rinse and store. Blade can be damaged if wash in the dishwasher. Overall 95/100 score. Happy buying

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Beautiful knife

Amazingly sharp knife, I mean really sharp. Beautiful to look at, nice to hold. Used more for delicate foods. The edge has a slight tendency to flake (chip) if you get too aggressive when sharpening. Don’t use anything more course than a 2000 wet stone.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good product
*by S***I on 7 July 2016*

An excellent product. Only issue is that I'd have preferred a slightly shorter model as it is a little unwieldy.
