Description
The Shun Premier Utility Knife 16.5cm is a versatile Japanese kitchen knife designed for precision cutting, slicing, trimming, and everyday food preparation. Positioned between a chef’s knife and a paring knife, this premium utility knife is ideal for handling smaller ingredients and detailed kitchen tasks with exceptional control and razor-sharp performance.
Handcrafted in Japan, the Shun Premier Utility Knife features a high-performance VG-MAX steel core surrounded by layered Damascus stainless steel for superior sharpness, durability, and edge retention. The blade is finished with Shun’s signature hammered Tsuchime texture, which helps reduce drag and minimise food sticking while adding striking handcrafted detail.
Its 16.5cm blade is perfectly suited to slicing fruit, preparing vegetables, trimming proteins, and making sandwiches, while the walnut-finished pakkawood handle delivers outstanding balance, comfort, and grip during everyday use.
For customers searching for authentic Japanese utility knives in Brisbane or hard-to-find Shun Premier knives online in Australia, the Shun Premier Utility Knife 16.5cm is an essential addition to any premium kitchen knife collection.
