  • Detail

    Summary

    Handcrafted in Japan, the Shun Premier Blonde collection is distinguished by hammered blades that evoke the artistry of traditional hand-forged knives, and light-hued PakkaWood handles that provide a modern look. This exceptional set includes a trio of essential knives, a honing steel and a space-saving storage block.

    • Each blade features core of extremely hard VG-MAX "super steel" clad on each side with 34 microthin layers of stainless steel.
    • Striking hammered finish (tsuchime in Japanese) reduces drag when cutting and helps quickly release food from blade.
    • Blonde-finished PakkaWood handles have two-position design, providing trigger grip for pull cuts and perfect balance point for pinch grip.
    • Stainless-steel end caps embossed with Shun logo add stability, strength and wide weight distribution from end to end.

    5-piece set includes:

    • 4" paring knife
    • 6 1/2" utility knife
    • 8" chef's knife
    • 9" combination honing steel
    • 6-slot Slimline bamboo block
    • Please note: Storage block is counted as an individual piece.

    Use & Care

    Use

    • Always use caution when handling sharp objects.
    • Avoid cutting on hard surfaces such as stone, metal and glass.
    • It is not advisable to use any knife but a meat cleaver to cut through bone, as other blades can be easily damaged.

    Care

    • Hand-wash with warm water and mild detergent. Rinse and dry immediately.
    • Avoid cleaners containing bleach and citrus extracts.
    • Sharpen as needed. With regular use and honing once a week, knives should not need sharpening more than once or twice a year.
    • Sharpen knives at home using whetstone or sharpener designed to sharpen at 16-degree angle, or have them sharpened by a professional.
    • Store knives in safe place to protect edges and prevent injury.
