Shun Knives: Classic Kiritsuke 6"
We're thrilled to introduce the Shun Classic 6-in. Kiritsuke. This high-performance Japanese blade style is used for all the tasks for which you'd use a chef's knife. It's ideal for slicing and push cuts. Julienne, dice, or brunoise vegetables with ease. It's also an excellent choice for cleaning and portioning boneless proteins, and particularly fish. It slices cooked proteins easily and gracefully. This 6-in. size features a slightly shorter blade for easy maneuverability and versatility. It also has a slightly curved edge so that it even works well with rocking cuts. Once you try it, you'll find yourself reaching for your Shun Classic 6-in. Kiritsuke more and more often. As with the rest of the Classic series, the D-shaped handle provides both comfort and control.
