Shun Premier 6-Inch Ultimate Utility Knife

Shun Premier 6-Inch Ultimate Utility Knife combines a broad utility blade, rounded tip and widely spaced serrations for sandwich preparation. It can move from slicing a roll or tomato to spreading a soft condiment, making its shape particularly useful for lunches.

At a glance

• Rounded utility design

  The broad tip can spread soft ingredients, while the scalloped edge handles skins and sandwich components.

• 6-inch blade

  This 6-inch format helps define the working reach. Match it to your usual ingredients and leave room for the cutting stroke.

• Hammered finish

  The hammered tsuchime surface sits above the layered blade pattern, giving Premier its recognizable texture.

• Contoured Pakkawood

  The resin-treated wood handle has a rounded, contoured shape that differs from the Classic D-profile.

Find your fit

Choose this distinctive profile when sandwiches and small mixed-prep jobs are frequent. It serves a different role from a pointed paring knife or a long bread slicer. Read our utility knife guide for practical comparisons.

Care and storage

Wash by hand with mild detergent, then towel-dry the blade and handle before putting the knife away. Keep the edge protected in a suitable block, tray or guard. Have serrations maintained with a method suited to their shape. See our knife-care guide for a practical routine.
