    Summary

    Designed specifically to sharpen and hone Shun cutlery, this three-piece sharpening set includes a honing steel, a two-sided whetstone and a bamboo stand to ensure your Shun blade is at the perfect angle for sharpening.

    • Use the honing steel for weekly maintenance; use the whetstone to restore the blade's edge when sharpening becomes necessary.
    • Dual-sided ceramic whetstone has a different coarseness on each side: 1000 grit and 6000 grit.
    • The 1000-grit side is perfect for duller blades and setting the edge.
    • The 6000-grit is very fine for refreshing or finishing a razor-sharp edge.
    • The stabilizing bamboo base maintains the perfect blade position for sharpening Shun’s 16-degree blade angle.
    • The honing steel’s rod is forged from corrosion-resistant high-carbon steel.
    • The durable, ergonomically shaped PakkaWood handle on the honing steel resists moisture and provides a comfortable grip.
    • Designed by Shun, a Japanese company that has produced fine cutlery for more than 90 years.

    Set includes:

    • Dual-sided ceramic whetstone.
    • Bamboo stand for whetstone.
    • Honing Steel.

    Use & Care

    Use

    • Use with straight-edged knives only; not for use with serrated blades.
    • Steel length should measure at least as long as the knife being honed.
    • Line up the knife with the guide and make a few light strokes on each side of the blade.
    • Depending on how often you use your knives, you may wish to hone once a week.
    • A paste will accumulate on the whetstone during sharpening. Leave it in place while sharpening.

    Care

    • Remove metal filings from the steel with a damp cloth.
    • Clean whetstone under running water and allow to air dry.
