Description of Shun Classic U2 (Ultimate Utility) Knife Shun has nicknamed this knife the "U2" which means the Ultimate Utility Knife. This knife featuring a 6" blade also sports a reverse scalloped cutting edge. Perfect for bagels, breads, fruits, vegetables (try this on a tomato if you want to be impressed). And due to its unique rounded tip, flip this knife over and use as a spatula and make your sandwich in record time with less mess and cleanup. You'll soon see why this is call the Ultimate Utility knife. The scalloped-edge, six-inch blade on this Shun Classic knife is so sharp it slices effortlessly through everything from a soft tomato to a crusty loaf of bread. Add the rounded tip for spreading mayonnaise, and the Ultimate Utility becomes the ultimate sandwich-maker that every kitchen needs. Not only does the knife work hard, it looks stunning, from the shiny black handle to the shimmering ripples on the Damascus-style blade. Already gift-boxed, this knife will be hard to give away. Shun knives, made in Japan by KAI (Kershaw Cutlery), are quite possibly the sharpest knives on the market. The acute 16 degree angle of Shun edges won't bend or waver due to the hardness of the VG-10 steel core used in their construction. Clad with 32 layers of high-carbon stainless steel (16 on each side), the blades resist rusting and maintain their razor edge for a considerable time. The handles are made of a resin and hardwood fusion known as PakkaWood, and form a "D" or slight tear-drop profile with a side ridge that most comfortably fits a right-handed user. Covered by a lifetime warranty, Shun knives are dishwasher-safe, but are best cared for when washed and dried--carefully--by hand. --Ann Bieri
