Issei Shin blades have an ample curve to aid in the rocking technique. However, the end of the heel is straight, enabling the user to also use the up and down chopping method as well. The point at the tip is perfect for trimming meat, chicken and fish and other intricate cutting tasks. The wide girth of the blade makes scooping up your chopped vegetables or fruit and placing them in a pan or bowl effortless.
