Not what it used to be
on November 9, 2023
Posted by: Tyler
Just bought a new utility knife this week. Have been using the same knife for the past ten years professionally and love it. It’s been worn down so I decided to buy a new one. Same blade and size. However it seems they have made the wooden handle smaller which makes it much more uncomfortable than the nice D handle they had when I first bought this knife. When it arrived I got it out of the box and it felt different, sure enough the handle was more slim and doesn’t fit my hand as well. Disappointed to say the least. I will be returning it and looking for another work horse that fits me well. If all the new shuns are this way I may have to replace my entire set when the time comes with something different. Currently own: All Shun: 12 inch chef knife, pairing knife, 2-10 inch chef knifes, and now 2- 6 inch utility knifes (my favorite of them all) but the new one will be sent back. Hope this isn’t the new course for Shun. That’s all I use. All the knifes are at least 8 years old that I have and I love them, just disappointed in this new purchase.

I love this knife. Very comfortable to hold and I’m using it every day. The blade is very sharp so makes cutting easy.

Great Addition

I love this addition to my knife block. The blade is thinner but longer than my paring knife. Just right to fill in my set.

High quality but for the price it should come with a sheath
Response from Shun CutleryBy KAI Yotpo Admin, March 27, 2023
Hello Wayne,
Thank you for taking the time to comment and rate our Shun Classic Utility 6". We appreciate the support and input from our valued customers.
We apologize for your disappointment in this item not coming with a reusable sheath.
Customers have many choices and preferences on how they store their knives when not purchasing in a set containing a reusable gift box or block. As such, leaving the storage options to our customers also helps avoid unnecessary waste for those that do not want to sheath their knives.
We do offer some options for your knife though regarding Saya's and Blade Guards - links below. Hope this helps and thank you again for being part of the Shun family of handcrafted cutlery!
