Shun Premier Blonde 4″ Paring Knife

The Shun Premier Blonde 4″ Paring Knife features a lighter shade of Pakkawood handle, and we have to say it looks really cool. And that’s probably enough, given that the Premier line is already faultless in terms of build quality, finish and precise, fast performance. The 4″ Pairing knife is an everyday essential, which means you’ll enjoy using it every day. The Premier series is forged with a thin, Damascus-style blade with hammered finish and a carbon steel cutting core made from Shun’s proprietary VG-MAX super steel. This knife is wonderfully over-engineered for its intended use; an exceptional cook’s tool that should easily last for a lifetime of use.
All Shun Premier knives include free lifetime sharpening and are backed by a limited lifetime warranty. Handcrafted in Seki, Japan.
