This unusual-looking knife is a Shun original. The cutting edge of this amazingly useful knife features a wide serration that makes it just right for slicing delicate thin-skinned foods like tomatoes or foods with thicker ski and delicate interior like avocados.

The Ultimate Utility Knife's curved belly enables you to rock it on the cutting board, while the wide blade with its rounded tip makes it great for spreading mayo a sandwich. 

When you are ready to cut the sandwich in half, the wide serrations glide through without tearing. It may not look traditional, but the Shun Classic Ultimate Utility Knife is about performance where it counts - in your kitchen.

About Shun

In Japan, the blade is more than a tool; it’s a tradition. From legendary samurai swords to the handcrafted culinary cutlery of today, the exquisite craftsmanship of Japanese blades is admired worldwide.

Since the 13th century, Seki City has been the heart of the Japanese cutlery industry. For more than 112 years, it has also been the home of Kai Corporation, the makers of Shun fine cutlery. Inspired by the traditions of ancient Japan, today’s highly skilled Shun artisans produce blades of unparalleled quality and beauty. Shun is dedicated to maintaining this ancient tradition by continuing to handcraft each knife in our Seki City facilities. Each piece of this fine kitchen cutlery takes at least 100 individual steps to complete.
