I thought the Shun Honesuki was a bit small (at 4.5") and thin in the spine for butchering chickens, so I chose this small Kiritsuke knife to use as a Honesuki. Turns out it is also an excellent prep knife, with its convenient size, pointed tip and excellent sharpness. I really like the versatility and looks of this knife. I have had good results with Shun Classic knives and I like the understated, classy look of both blade and handle. Finally, Cutlery and More delivers these to me super fast - they are the only merchant who routinely gets deliveries to me overnight.
CACutlery and More8 hours agoThe Shun Classic line has that perfect balance of performance and understated elegance. Love that you're getting double duty out of it as both a butchery and prep knife - the versatility of the Kiritsuke design really shines through. Thanks for the kind words about our delivery speed and for sharing your experience!

Great multipurpose knife. I bought the 8" version a year before, and love it, but it was too burly for finer work.

Really like this knife, was looking for something with the K tip and this came up on sale. It was very sharp out of the box and was very comfortable in the hand. It seems to have a little mor curve near the tip which I like.
Very nice knife especially at the sale price..
