Shun Edo Paring Knife, 3 1/2"
Shun Edo's reputation for superior power and control is reflected in the extraordinary appearance of their cutlery. The VG-10 steel blade's eye-catching hammered pattern reduces drag and helps food release easily, and the handle's tear-drop shape and broad bolster facilitate a variety of cutting techniques. This precise paring knife is indispensable for trimming and peeling fruits and vegetables. Wide bolsters and ergonomic grips reduce tension and fatigue while providing added leverage. Incredibly dense VG-10 "Super Steel" blade is tempered for exceptional hardness and edge retention. The hammered pattern ("tsuchime" in Japanese) helps the blade pass easily through food without sticking. Handle is made from resin-infused PakkaWood for lasting moisture resistance. Shun's knife-making technique draws upon the traditions of Japanese sword-making while employing state-of-the-art technology. This NSF-certified knife meet the high-level hygiene standards of commercial kitchens. Handcrafted in Japan.

Use and Care
August 30, 2011
The Use and Care section of this tool notes the following: :With regular use and honing once a week, you should not need to sharpen your knife more than once or twice a year." Honing once a week will lead to premature demise! Words are swapped and should read as follows: With regular use and sharpening once a week, you should not need to hone your knife more than once or twice a year.

MOST USEFUL KNIFE IN MY KITCHEN!
February 11, 2011
I have many Ken Onion Shun knives and love them all. But this Shun Edo parking knife is, by far, the most reached for and useful knife in my kitchen.
The fit in my hand (average size for female) is sturdy and there developed an immediate trust in my cutting actions with this winner! It is VERY controllable and sharp. I even grab it for chopping up celery and carrots and such as it is just so comfortable and reliable. I TRUST THIS KNIFE to follow my lead EXACTLY! This will be your "go to" knife. I wish I had had it for years and years and years as prep work would have been much easier and whole lot less scary!
This knife should not be viewed as a spluge for it is an investment in making your everyday work easier than you ever imagined! You will have absolutely no regrets but an immediate sigh of happiness, having found at last, the knife for which you have always searched!

Perfect Pairing Knife!
August 30, 2010
I got this knife and love it! My fiance who is a bartender also loves it and has been known to take it to work with him to cut up fruits and garnishes. my only complaint is that with my small hands the handle sometimes feels awkward when I hold it but other than that it out preforms all of my other knives!
