Shun Classic 6″ Utility Knife

Perfect for small tasks where precise cuts are needed, such as trimming broccoli, green beans, or other smaller vegetables. Use it like a large paring knife or a smaller alternative to the chef’s knife. Its very slightly curved belly enables it to do moderate rocking cuts. It’s nimble enough to peel an onion in hand, then slice it up in short order. Utility knives are sometimes called sandwich knives because they work well on almost everything that goes into a sandwich – from thin-skinned vegetables such as tomatoes, to meats and cheeses.
