The KAI Housewares Luna Multi-Utility 6-Inch Knife is the workhorse every kitchen needs for tackling a wide range of prep tasks with precision and control. Built with a partially serrated blade, this knife excels at slicing through foods with tough exteriors and soft interiors—think tomatoes, sausages, crusty breads, and citrus. The front portion of the blade is razor-sharp and hand-sharpened to a 16° double-bevel edge, while the serrated section is ground to a 16° single-bevel for enhanced bite and longer-lasting edge retention.
Crafted from high-carbon, high-chromium German DIN1.4116 stainless steel, the blade offers an ideal mix of corrosion resistance, wear resistance, and easy resharpening. It's the same steel found in many high-end cutlery pieces, giving you professional performance without the premium price tag. Whether you're slicing meats, prepping sandwiches, or cutting through firm vegetables, this knife handles medium-sized tasks with ease.
The handle is molded from durable polypropylene and overlaid with a soft-grip material that offers a secure, comfortable hold—even when your hands are wet or greasy. Its ergonomic design ensures balance and reduces hand fatigue, making it ideal for extended prep sessions. The soft-grip surface also gives you a confident, slip-resistant grip, enhancing control and safety in a fast-moving kitchen.
To keep your knife protected between uses, the Luna Multi-Utility Knife includes a custom-fit matching sheath. The sheath not only guards the edge from dulling but also makes it safer to store in drawers or transport to cooking classes or off-site kitchens. Lightweight yet rugged, this knife and sheath combination is built for busy kitchens and demanding cooks.
Made in China under KAI’s strict quality control, the Luna Multi-Utility 6-Inch Knife blends thoughtful design, durable materials, and professional-grade steel into one versatile kitchen tool. It's the ideal middle ground between a paring knife and a chef's knife, offering agility and strength in a compact, reliable form. Check out SMKWs large selection of kitchen knives!
