On the Shun Premier Master Utility Knife, 6 1/2", the hammered finish helps reduce drag while cutting and helps food release more quickly from the blade.
VG-MAX super steel is the knife’s extremely hard core steel, with 34 microthin layers of stainless steel clad on each side.
The walnut-finished PakkaWood handle has a two-position design that supports a trigger grip for pull cuts and a pinch grip at the balance point.
