Shun Narukami 165mm (6.5") Master Utility Knife

The Master Utility is a blade shape unique to Shun. This versatile knife combines the agility of a utility knife with the multifunction capabilities of a chef’s knife. The blade is wider than a standard utility, so you can easily accomplish a wide range of food preparation tasks. A larger handle gives you a secure, comfortable, and confident grip as you work. With the Narukami Master Utility, all this versatility is combined with the ultimate performance of carbon steel cutlery—from top edge retention to easy re-sharpening. 

Narukami, which means “thunderbolt” in Japanese, has a striking look. It is designed for professionals and for those who appreciate the unique qualities of fine carbon steel cutlery.

Narukami’s Blue II carbon steel cutting core takes and holds a razor-sharp edge then re-sharpens easily when needed. Like all carbon steels, Blue II requires additional care to prevent rust and corrosion from forming on the carbon steel core.

Cleaning and drying immediately is key. Over time, the edge will darken, developing a patina which, when formed, will also help protect the edge. Full-tang construction and riveted handles ensure a lifetime of service from this multi-skilled knife.

*CAUTION - rinse knives under running water, and immediately dry by hand - do not put in dishwasher.
