Shun – DM0722 – Classic 6″ Serrated Utility Knife – VG-Max Satin Spear Point – Pakkawood – Black

Description

The Shun Classic DM0722 6-inch Serrated Utility Knife is an indispensable addition to any kitchen, offering precision, versatility, and enduring beauty. Sometimes referred to as a tomato or sandwich knife, this mid-sized blade bridges the gap between a chef’s knife and a paring knife. Its narrow, straight blade with finely crafted serrations is designed to slice cleanly through foods with firm exteriors and soft interiors—think tomatoes, avocados, sausages with tough casings, or crusty baguettes. This makes it the perfect choice for prepping ingredients that require both finesse and strength. Crafted in Japan, the DM0722 features Shun’s proprietary VG-MAX cutting core—an advanced stainless steel formula known for its exceptional wear resistance, corrosion resistance, and fine grain structure, which allows it to hold a razor-sharp edge. Each side of the blade is clad in 34 layers of stainless Damascus, totaling 69 layers, producing a stunning rippling pattern that enhances strength and reduces drag for smoother cuts. This cladding also helps prevent food from sticking to the blade. The handle is made from ebony-finished Pakkawood in a traditional D-shape, providing a secure, comfortable grip for both left- and right-handed users. This wood/resin composite is not only aesthetically pleasing but also moisture-resistant and bacteria-resistant for hygienic performance over years of use. A full composite tang ensures lightweight agility and perfect balance in hand, making extended prep sessions less fatiguing. Ideal for detailed slicing tasks and delicate ingredients, the Shun DM0722 Classic 6″ Serrated Utility Knife blends traditional craftsmanship with cutting-edge materials—offering professional-level performance for chefs and home cooks alike.
