CASE KNIVES
High quality, extremely collectible handmade knives since the 1800s.
SHOP CASE KNIVESSay goodbye to wrestling with roasts or mangling your fillets—this beauty is built to glide through meat and fish like it’s got a backstage pass to your kitchen. The Shun Premier Blonde Boning/Fillet Knife features a curved, rigid 6-inch blade that’s designed to get in close, offering tight control where it matters most—right up against the bone or skin.
Boning out chicken thighs? Trimming silver skin from a tenderloin? Filleting a fresh catch? This knife makes it all feel effortless. Its narrow, ultra-sharp VG–MAX core slices through fibrous tissue and delicate flesh alike, while the slim profile reduces drag, making each pass smooth and fast.
Wrapped in 69 layers of gorgeous Damascus steel and finished with Shun’s signature tsuchime hammered texture, this blade isn’t just stunning—it’s practical too. That hammered finish helps food release more easily, so nothing sticks while you're working your magic.
And the blonde Pakkawood handle? Contoured for comfort, resistant to moisture, and cool enough to show off.
