This paring knife is sharp which makes cutting anything a piece of cake. I use it on fruits, veggies, bread, bagels, pretty much anything I need to cut. I would definitely recommend. Given I use it multiple times a day everyday, it is definitely worth its price.. Kari95. Wed May 19 2021

The Shun Shiranami knife series is precision forged, nature inspired, rooted in the ocean's dynamic beauty. Shun Shiranami knives combine extraordinary sharpness with superior performance. The Damascus blade is made from two premium-quality, high-carbon stainless steels. 71 alternating micro-layers of high carbon, high chromium VG10 and VG2 stainless steels are roll-forged to produce a finer grain in the steel and to give it both strength and beauty. The laminated steel is then hot forged to create the wave-inspired pattern that allows the layers to alternate along the cutting edge. During normal use, the two steels will wear at different rates creating micro serrations along the edge so that the extremely sharp edge feels sharp longer. Etched laminations in the blade reduce drag, helping food release from the blade and gliding through each cut quickly and easily. Beyond durability, the textured surface of the jute micarta handle provides a tactile experience that improves grip and control, especially in wet or slippery conditions. The full composite tang in the handle lends the knife a robust stability and provides an optimum counterweight to the blade. Shiranami, meaning ""white-capped wave"" in Japanese, reflects the knife's stunning blade pattern, featuring an exceptionally sharp blade edge and a fine, thin mid-blade for ease of slicing, this series sets a new standard in cutting performance and beauty. All Shun Shiranami knives are made in Seki, Japan.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Wow this knife is still super sharp! I have never had a knife stay sharp like this. Wish it came with a guard or blade protector but rather amazing. Feels great in the hand and easy to use. I selected a paring knife since I do a lot of prep and cutting meats. You really don't have an idea how great these knives are until you're using one. If you cook a lot I heavily recommend u save for one and treat yourself but hide it from those who destroy kitchen items. Every family has one of those. Really impressive knife!! I am going to see if I can save for a chef knife or something else. Absolutely amazing!. Janep. Sat May 02 2026
