Its recorded curved belly supports rocking cuts. The shorter utility knife offers a more compact option for trimming fats, slicing sandwiches, sectioning citrus and preparing medium-sized produce.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe existing listing describes these knives as handcrafted in Seki, Japan. The Premier design combines patterned Damascus cladding and a hammered blade face with warm walnut-coloured handles. The texture may help food release, but it does not guarantee that ingredients will never stick. Pakkawood is an engineered handle material, not solid walnut.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis is a second-hand set, not a new boxed retail set. The owner has confirmed the Shun Premier identity and two-piece count. Exact model numbers and the recorded steel, dimensions, cladding and factory specifications should be checked against the blade markings and measurements before publication. No claim of pristine condition or remaining warranty is made.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCare \u0026amp; Maintenance\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHand wash only with warm water and mild detergent.
