The CLASSIC 3" Serrated Paring Knife offers a serrated edge that has saw-like teeth to enable the blade to slice cleanly through food with delicate textures such as soft vegetables and fruit, as well as citrus fruits that have a tougher skin.

For cutting tomatoes, vegetables, and fruits with firm skins. The Classic 3" Serrated Paring Knife cuts through ingredients cleanly and smoothly without placing too much pressure on the surface. The serrated edge is also suitable for dry or semi-dry sausages and hard cheeses.

This stunningly beautiful line of classic cutlery features the look and benefits of Damascus steel, yet without its rusting problems. The Damascus-look blade profile reduces sticking and results in less damage to the food being cut and faster prep times.

In addition to their clad VG-10 blades, The Shun Classics also feature our uniquely stable "D" shape handle design.

The "D" shape rests precisely in the curve of the fingers as they curl around the handle. The asymmetrical bolster is ground out more on the right side to provide proper finger placement and an easy, secure grip. The knives balance perfectly, with the pivot point just ahead of where the handle sweeps out of the blade. Shun Classics may be special ordered for left-handed users—with the asymmetrical bolster ground out on the left side for ideal finger placement.

The black PakkaWood® handles provide the beauty of genuine wood, but—since the wood is impregnated with a waterproof resin—the handles are as durable as plastic and dishwasher safe, too.
