Product Description
Prepare meat and fish with precision using the Shun Premier 6-Inch Boning & Fillet Knife. Its narrow, curved, rigid blade works close to the bone for controlled separation, while the sharp edge handles fibrous tissue, trims silver skin from tenderloins and roasts, and helps prepare cutlets.
The narrow blade reduces drag as it moves through meat, and its 6-inch length is suited to filleting fish and separating flesh from bones and skin. A contoured, walnut-finished Pakkawood handle provides a secure, comfortable grip for control and resists moisture.
A wear- and corrosion-resistant VG-MAX cutting core holds a fine, sharp edge, supported and protected by 68 layers of Damascus cladding. The hammered tsuchime finish helps food release during cutting, combining the Premier collection’s distinctive appearance with practical performance.
Handcrafted in Seki City, Japan, Shun knives draw on centuries of Japanese blade-making tradition. Each knife takes at least 100 individual steps, combining skilled craftsmanship with modern technology. The name Shun celebrates ingredients at their peak of freshness, flavor, and beauty, a philosophy that brings purpose to everyday preparation.
