The ultra-versatile Shun Narukami Master Utility combines the nimbleness of a utility knife with the do-it-all capabilities of a chef's knife. The blade is slightly longer and significantly wider, so you can easily accomplish a wide range of food preparation tasks while enjoying the ease of use and agility of a compact knife. Extra width at the heel and a slightly curved belly enables rocking cuts to easily mince herbs and spices. A larger handle gives you a secure, comfortable, and confident grip as you work. The Shun Classic Master Utility's downturned tip (similar to a kiritsuke) is extra durable. Slice, dice, shred, or portion; you can do it all with this one very beautiful, very functional, kitchen knife.
Narukami, “thunderbolt” in Japanese, brings you the sharp, edge-holding performance of Blue II carbon steel in a strikingly styled kitchen knife. Cut with this handsome knife and the feeling is simple and confident, yet it offers something others don’t: easier care. Shun jackets the core with a layer of beadblasted san mai stainless steel on each side, making these knives easier to maintain. The stainless steel protects the core, while the bead blasting hides scratches and helps food release. Narukami is lightweight and nimble so every meal you cook can be the best yet. Built to last, Narukami features full tang construction and riveted micarta handles.
