The Shun Dual Core Master Utility combines the agility of a utility knife with the versatility of a chef's knife. Its blade is slightly longer and wider than a traditional utility knife, giving you the flexibility to handle an impressive range of everyday kitchen tasks with the control and maneuverability of a compact knife.
The broader heel provides added stability, while the gently curved belly supports smooth rocking cuts for herbs and spices. A durable downturned tip, inspired by the traditional kiritsuke, excels at detailed work and precision cuts. From slicing and dicing to trimming and portioning, the Master Utility is an exceptionally versatile addition to any kitchen.
