Description
The Shun Premier paring knife wraps a VG-MAX cutting core in 34 layers of Damascus cladding with a hammered tsuchime finish that reduces food adhesion. The 10cm blade offers precise control for detailed cuts, while the walnut-toned PakkaWood handle provides warmth and moisture resistance. A miniature masterpiece from Seki City.
Detail Work, Elevated
Turn a radish into a rosette with surgical confidence—the VG-MAX edge carves petal after petal without dulling. The tsuchime dimples release each slice cleanly, leaving the blade free for the next intricate cut.
In a chef’s hand, this paring knife transforms garnish into artistry.
Tsuchime Damascus
Each Shun Premier blade is hand-hammered to create the tsuchime texture, a centuries-old technique that forms tiny air pockets between the blade and food to reduce drag and sticking.
The walnut PakkaWood handle is resin-impregnated for lifetime moisture resistance, finished with a contoured end cap that locks the hand into a comfortable forward grip.
Knife Care & Maintenance
Keep your blade performing at its best. Rinse and dry after each use to prevent corrosion. Apply a thin coat of mineral oil to the blade periodically. Sharpen with a whetstone or honing rod at a consistent angle. Store in a sheath, knife roll, or magnetic strip — never loose in a drawer. For carbon and Damascus steel, wipe after contact with acidic foods. For folding knives, clean the pivot area and apply a drop of lubricant to ensure smooth deployment.
