| The Shun Reserve Paring knife is a kitchen essential—and extremely versatile. Its compact size makes it ideal for peeling, coring, trimming, decorating, and other detail work. Generally, you’ll use this knife in your hand rather than against a cutting board, though paring knives can also be used for chopping small foods, such as garlic cloves. The Reserve Paring knife’s curved handle nestles into the hand to make your paring tasks quick and comfortable. |
About the Shun Reserve Series |
| The Shun Reserve line is a masterful blend of graceful beauty and impeccable performance. Shun Reserve knives are full-tang Western-style knives clad with 32 layers of flowing “ladder” Damascus. Yet as beautiful as this elegant Damascus is, it is Reserve’s SG2 steel cutting core that makes it truly remarkable. This ultra-fine-grained steel is incredibly hard and dense—enabling Shun to make thinner blades that can be sharpened to a razor-like 16° angle. At the same time, SG2 offers unmatched edge retention. Shun Reserve offers the strength and perfectly balanced weight that Western-style knife lovers prefer. Full-tang, riveted construction provides a heftier blade that delivers both power and precision. The handles are made of charcoal and crimson PakkaWood® and features an inlaid mosaic crest. Exceptionally beautiful, Shun Reserve knives offer ultra-premium materials, extraordinary fit & finish, and are a pleasure to use. |
