## 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: This is a top quality knife - Don't waste your money on cheap knives. This one is fantastic and will work much better than all those cheap ones that you would have to replace very often. This will probably last for years and is a great product. It cuts through really tough things like pineapples, rather like a knife through butter. Would definitely recommend this item.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: What makes Shun worth the upgrade?**
A: Shun knives are handcrafted in Japan with premium steel such as VG-MAX. Extra sharp out of the box, they stay sharp longer and deliver unmatched precision. Shun knives are more than a tool, they’re a lifelong cooking experience.

**Q: How should I care for my Shun knife?**
A: Always hand wash with mild soap and dry immediately. Never put your Shun knife in the dishwasher. Use a soft wood cutting board like Hinoki to protect your knife edge when cutting. Do not use Shun for chopping through bone or frozen ingredients.

**Q: What is the proper cutting technique for a Shun?**
A: Use a locomotive motion when cutting - move the blade forward or back instead of pressing straight down. This lets the blade do the work, reduces fatigue, and helps keep your Shun in top condition.

**Q: How often should I sharpen my knife?**
A: Notice your Shun losing its edge? Hone weekly to re-align the blade. If honing no longer works, send it in for free sharpening or follow our online tutorials to hone and sharpen at home.

**Q: What’s the correct way to pronounce Shun?**
A: Say 'Shoon' (rhymes with moon). Shun is the Japanese concept of enjoying food at its peak. We honor this tradition by crafting fine cutlery that’s always at the peak of its perfection.
