KAI Shun Classic DM700 Paring Knife, 90 mm

The KAI Shun Classic DM700 90 mm paring knife is designed for precision tasks. Its 90 mm blade is suited for close-range cutting where a standard chef’s knife would be too unwieldy. Manufactured in Japan using traditional forging techniques, the knife is built for tasks such as peeling fruit and trimming small produce, offering the control needed for delicate work.

The D-shaped handle is made from Pakkawood, a durable composite resistant to moisture and heat. Its ergonomic design ensures a secure grip during repetitive tasks. To preserve the blade and handle, the knife should be washed by hand. The black finish gives the handle a neutral appearance suitable for any kitchen.

• VG-10 core steel: a high-carbon alloy providing the primary cutting edge.
• 32-layer Damascus steel cladding: protects the core and creates a distinctive grain pattern on the blade.
• 61 HRC Rockwell hardness: indicates a high level of steel hardness for durable edge retention.
• 10-degree sharpening angle: ground to a fine point for clean, accurate cuts through delicate produce.
• Damascus finish: the blade features a visible grain pattern for a distinct aesthetic.
