Shun Premier Utility 6.5" Knife
6.5-inch Japanese utility knife for trimming, slicing, and sandwich preparation
The Shun Premier 6.5" Utility Knife handles the medium-size cutting jobs that feel awkward with a small paring knife or a larger chef's knife. Its slim VG-MAX Damascus blade gives you control for trimming vegetables, slicing tomatoes, and preparing sandwich fillings such as meats and cheeses.
