Imagine gliding your knife in one steady push through a fresh fillet of salmon, unveiling even portions that nestle perfectly on a bed of greens, each slice a quiet nod to the care behind it. That's the masterful flow Shun achieves with their Dual Core 8-inch Kiritsuke, a pro-inspired all rounder we reach for when versatility meets precision in the home kitchen.

We adore how Shun crafted this beauty with a dual core of VG10 and VG2 steels, forged into 71 rippling Damascus layers for that razor keen 16-degree edge that holds true through seasons of dicing veggies or portioning proteins, all while the stainless build fights stains and eases every release. Shun shaped the straight blade for safe push cuts that julienne carrots or trim roasts without a tip to snag, lighter at seven ounces than you'd expect for effortless control.

The octagon ebony Pakkawood handle cradles your grip with warm, bacteria resistant comfort, and it arrives with a wooden sheath to keep things protected. Shun designed it as a nod to master chefs, and we're all in on its thoughtful balance for cooks who crave that intuitive edge. We chose it because nothing turns prep into quiet artistry quite like this. Reach for yours and let the cuts inspire.

  • Dual VG10 and VG2 core in 71-layer Damascus for razor sharp 16° edge, corrosion resistance, and enduring performance on veggies, proteins, and fish
  • Straight 8-inch kiritsuke blade excels at push cuts for julienning, dicing, portioning boneless meats, and filleting with superior control and no rocking
  • Lightweight design (7 oz) offers nimble handling for all-day use, bridging chef's versatility with specialty finesse
  • Traditional octagon ebony Pakkawood handle provides secure, moisture-resistant comfort; includes wooden sheath for safe storage
