The details

A closer look

The Samura Shadow paring knife is a compact knife for fruit and vegetables. Its short 99 mm blade is well suited to peeling potatoes and cutting the peeled tubers, as well as to trimming and cutting fruit. The AUS-8 stainless steel blade has a black non-stick coating and is paired with a black ABS plastic handle.

Blade and steel

The blade is made from a single layer of AUS-8 stainless steel, hardened to 58–59 HRC. This hardness gives you a practical balance: the edge holds up well to everyday prep, and when it needs attention, it is straightforward to restore on a whetstone.

A black non-stick coating covers the blade. It helps keep food from sticking as you cut and gives the knife its dark finish. The double-bevel edge is ground on both sides, so resharpening stays simple.

Handle and balance

The handle is made of black ABS plastic, a durable and practical material. Its anatomical shape is comfortable to hold and gives you good control over the short blade during detailed work. The knife weighs 46 g and measures 209 mm overall.

Best uses

  • Peeling potatoes and other vegetables
  • Cutting peeled potatoes into pieces
  • Peeling and trimming fruit
  • Small, precise cuts on fruit and vegetables

Care and sharpening

Rinse the knife with hot water and wipe it dry before first use. Wash it by hand with non-abrasive materials and wipe it dry; a dishwasher is not recommended, and do not leave it in the sink for long. Cut on wooden or plastic boards, never on glass, and leave bones to a SAMURA cleaver and frozen food to a double-sided saw knife with a serrated blade. Store the knife in a brush block or knife holder where the blade does not touch metal items, use a honing rod between sharpenings and resharpen on a whetstone at the original factory bevel angle of 15–17°.

Care & sharpening

Keep it sharp

  • Before first use, rinse with hot water and wipe dry.
  • Use only on wooden or plastic cutting boards, never on glass.
  • Take care with food that contains bones: use a SAMURA cleaver for meat and bones and a double-sided saw knife with a serrated blade for frozen food.
  • Clean by hand with non-abrasive materials and wipe dry. A dishwasher is not recommended.
  • Do not leave knives in the sink for a long time.
  • Store in a brush block or knife holder so that the blade does not touch metal items.
  • Sharpen on a whetstone and keep the original factory bevel angle of 15–17°. Use a honing rod between sharpenings, moving the edge along the rod from the handle to the point.
  • Never test sharpness with bare hands; use a piece of paper.
