Overview
The Shun Classic Perfect Paring knife is, quite simply, the most versatile Paring knife ever devised. It is light and nimble for in-hand tasks, but its deep blade is equally at home when used on the cutting board. The inward curve at the back of the blade makes quick work of peeling, tasks while the outward curve at the tip is ideal for precision slicing and coring. The Shun Classic Perfect Paring knife is indeed perfect in so many ways for so many different jobs.
