Summary: The 7 piece Shun Classic Knife Set is designed for high quality cooking in an everday kitchen. Using Shun’s Kasumi knife making method all 7 pieces are very durable and can be used for all kitchen needs.

The Shun Classic 7 piece set features everything you would expect from a set of Shun Classic Knives.  It includes 4 beautiful Shun Classic knives, a pair of kitchen shears, a sharpening steel and a bamboo block housing to keep your blades from loosing their edge.

  • 8 inch Chef/Cooks knife
  • 6 inch utility knife
  • 3.5 inch pairing knife
  • 9 inch Bread Knife
  • A set of kitchen shears
  • High grade sharpening steel

Every knife in all Classic Shun Knife Sets are made in Japan by Shun following the Kasumi method of knife making. Shun Classic Knives are made in Seki city Japan by Shun and features the high standard (typical of all shun knife sets) VG-10 stainless steel blade with 32 layers (16 on each side) of stainless alloy.

Each of the Shun Classic Knives has a one-piece stainless steel bolster, tang and end cap (which basically means the steel runs the whole way through the knife- no cheap handles to snap off) and come with a lifetime warranty. Shun Classic Knives are made with a black PakkaWood (composite hardwood) handle.

  • Good Points  Very good product. Shun Classic Knives really are very good. The blades have a beautiful Damascus look which stops food from sticking to the blade. The PakkaWood handle – is amazing, comfortable and Shun knives are well balanced. These knives are made by the yasumi method of folding steel – the same method used to make samurai swords. Made from SUS419 high- carbon stainless steel. In a word – Amazing.
  • Bad PointsShun Classic Knives are especially designed for the user and come in either left hand or right hand – you cannot buy one knife for several people to use. They cost a lot – but are excellent knives
