Shun Classic Blonde 6" Utility Knife DM0701W

Your Everyday Prep Knife, Reinvented

The Shun Classic Blonde 6" Utility Knife is one of the most versatile tools in any kitchen. It lives in the sweet spot between a paring knife and a chef’s knife—light enough for delicate tasks, long enough to handle sandwich prep, veggie slicing, and cheese boards with ease.

The slim blade and pointed tip offer precision for everything from trimming green beans to halving sandwiches. A slightly curved belly even allows for light rocking cuts when needed. Handcrafted in Japan and designed for everyday use, this knife belongs in your daily rotation.

What Makes It Exceptional

• Versatile Size and Shape
  Perfect for prep work that’s too detailed for a chef’s knife and too big for a paring knife.
• Razor-Sharp VG-MAX Steel
  The proprietary cutting core delivers a long-lasting, 16° edge that glides through vegetables, meat, and cheese.
• Elegant Damascus Cladding
  68 layers of stainless steel offer stain resistance and reduce drag for cleaner cuts.
• Comfortable, Balanced Handle
  The blonde Pakkawood handle is light, ergonomic, and fits naturally in either hand.
• Built to Last
  A full composite tang provides stability and balance without adding unnecessary weight.
