Shun Classic Blonde Paring Knife, 3.5"

A Damascus-clad paring knife is designed for close-in, precise prep like peeling, scoring and other small tasks. The compact 3.5" blade makes it easy to guide the tip and edge where a larger knife can feel bulky.

This VG-MAX super steel paring knife has a proprietary VG-MAX core. That core is clad on both sides with 34 layers of stainless steel Damascus for a beautiful, layered look.

Yes. The stainless steel Damascus on the blade forms a wood-grain pattern that helps prevent sticking, so thin peels and small cuts release more easily as you work.

The D-shaped pakkawood handle is shaped for a comfortable, controlled grip, especially during precision work. The blonde finish gives the handle a lighter, standout look on the counter.

It’s a great choice if you do a lot of hands-on prep and want a small knife that feels quick and responsive. Home cooks who like detailed work will appreciate how easy it is to maneuver for fine cuts and trimming.
