Details
For left-handers, Shun offers a selection of knives in the Classic line with a reverse D-shaped grip which has the ridge on the left side of the handle. The ridge nestles into the curved fingers when used with the left hand. That said, many left-handed knife users find that the 'right-handed' D-shaped handles work perfectly well for them too. Many even prefer the right-handed D-shaped handle. In this case, the ridge doesn't fit in the curve of the fingers, but instead provides a resting place for the fingertips when the fingers are wrapped around the handle.
In size, the Shun Classic Left Handed Utility Knife is between a chef's knife and a paring knife, but its blade is narrower and straighter. It's perfect for a multitude of small tasks where more precise cuts are needed, such as trimming broccoli, green beans, or other smaller vegetables. Some cooks like to use it in their hand, too - almost like a large paring knife. Others like its smaller size as an alternative to the chef's knife. Its very slightly curved belly enables it to do moderate rocking cuts. It's nimble enough to peel an onion in hand, then slice it up in short order. Utility knives are sometimes called sandwich knives because they work well on almost everything that goes into a sandwich - from thin-skinned vegetables such as tomatoes, to meats and cheeses.
The Shun Classic Left Handed Utility Knife is part of the Shun Classic line of tasteful and contemporary cutlery. The Shun Classic line features beautiful Damascus-clad blades and D-shaped ebony PakkaWood handles. Yet behind these handcrafted knives' beauty is function: razor-sharp blades offering top performance. Shun's proprietary high-performance VG-MAX steel, which provides incredible edge retention, is clad with Damascus stainless steel, then ground and bead-blasted, revealing the flowing pattern of the layered steel. The result is a line of knives that are sharp, durable, and corrosion resistant, as well as beautiful to behold. The Shun Classic line also offers you the widest assortment of both traditional culinary blade shapes and cutting-edge designs, so you can always find the right knife for the task.
