Shun Classic Kiritsuke

Slicing, chopping, julienne, brunoise—a skilled cook can do just about anything with the kiritsuke, a versatile Japanese knife favored by experienced chefs. Ideal for slicing and push-cuts, it’s also an excellent choice for preparing boneless meats and fish.

Shun Classic knives blend sleek, contemporary design with beautiful, hand-sharpened blades and D-shaped pakkawood handles. Handcrafted in Seki City, Japan, these high-performance knives feature a core of proprietary VG-MAX super steel clad on both sides with 34 layers of stainless Damascus. The result is a knife that’s durable, corrosion resistant, and razor-sharp right out of the box—not to mention beautiful.
