- About this item
- This premium starter knife set includes two key pieces of cutlery that no kitchen should be without - featuring Shun's proprietary high-carbon VG-MAX cutting core, surrounded on each side by 32 layers of beautiful, layered Damascus steel cladding
- A D-shaped ebony black PakkaWood handle encases the full composite tang blade, reducing unwanted rotation and improving grip for right and left handed chefs alike
- The western chef knife features hollow-ground steel that helps release food after chopping; the utility knife is ideal for small tasks from mincing to shaving and garnishing
- Handcrafted in Japan; ground and honed to a razor sharp 16-degree edge out of the box. Balanced immediately forward of the bolster like most Shun knives for superior handling
- Santoku, nakiri, boning, slicing, or steak - Shun blades positively glide through food, letting the edge do the work
