Shun Sora Serrated Utility Knife

The fine, low-profile serrations are specifically designed to pierce tough outer skins—like those on tomatoes or crusty bread—without crushing the delicate interior. This allows for clean, precise slices rather than tearing or squashing your ingredients.

By combining a VG10 super steel core with Japanese 420J stainless steel, this knife offers the extreme sharpness and edge retention of high-end steel while maintaining the durability and flexibility of a stainless exterior. This construction ensures the blade remains sharp through frequent, everyday use.

Yes, the handle is crafted from a textured polymer that is both ergonomic and slip-resistant. It is designed to provide a secure, comfortable grip that reduces hand fatigue during repetitive tasks like slicing multiple sandwiches or fruits.

No, this knife must be hand washed only. Dishwasher detergents and the high heat of the drying cycle can dull the blade's edge and damage the handle material over time.

This size is ideal for smaller, precision tasks where a full-sized bread knife would be too cumbersome. It excels at slicing artisan rolls, citrus, sausages, cheeses, and soft-skinned vegetables like tomatoes or avocados.
