Imagine slipping the tip of your knife around an apple's core, freeing perfect wedges that bake into a crisp crumble without a single ragged edge or wasted bite. That's the nimble control Shun hands you with their Classic 4-inch Paring Knife, a kitchen staple we reach for whenever those close-up tasks call for a steady friend.

We love how Shun sized this one just right for peeling potatoes or trimming herbs right on the board, with enough length to handle bigger fruits while keeping things light and intuitive. Their VG-MAX core, sheathed in 68 rippling Damascus layers, delivers a 16-degree edge that stays fiercely sharp through seasons of prep, releasing food effortlessly so your rhythm flows uninterrupted. At a featherlight 2.4 ounces, it feels like an extension of your hand, perfect for home cooks who savor the details that make meals memorable.

The D-shaped ebony Pakkawood handle cradles left or right with warm, bacteria resistant comfort, turning everyday fiddles into quiet joys. Shun crafted it to make precision feel simple, and we're all in on that thoughtful ease. We chose this gem because nothing elevates your fresh finds quite like it. Reach for yours and let the peeling begin.
