Description

Shun Kanso is a design principle based on Zen philosophy meaning "simplicity," but simplicity that is achieved by eliminating the non-essential. Features high-performance steel, razor-sharp edge, perfect balance, and precision cutting control. The blade is constructed of Japanese AUS10A highly refined high-carbon vanadium stainless steel sharpened to a 16° cutting angle each side to cut cleanly and help preserve food's freshness and best taste, providing a razor-sharp edge that holds longer. The Heritage finish blade hides scratches and gives a rustic look that just improves with age. The handle is made of tagayasan wood, sometimes known as "iron sword wood." The full tang construction provides strength, balance, and easy cutting control. Handcrafted in Seki, Japan with a limited lifetime warranty.

    zenfully simplistic, beautiful, performance 2nd to NONE

    the blade has that rustic...but not rusty look, 360 view of blade, handle, shows simple yet detailed craftsmanship

    performance is as expected of shun and typical Japanese handcrafted cutlery

    love that the honing steel is part of the set, but the 'set' could be improved to be more complete, by including the 7in santoku and the 7in utility (kiritsuke esque) and perhaps some sheers specific to this collection (optional?)

    but I also completed it by getting the other 2 blades to fill the block, and in my opinion, WORTH EVERY PENNY...

    in fact when I first saw this collection from shun, before even reading the description, I was already drawn to the appeal of the simplistic, rustic, quality of craftsmanship..., and to my surprise seeing the description and words used to describe this collection, zen, simplicity, quality, performance..., the product speaks for itself and will appeal naturally to those whom it was meant to appeal to...

    Knives are great, block is cheap

    The knives themselves are great, but the last thing I expected to have to do when ordering a $400+ knife set was clean the sawdust out of the knife block. The block was made in China, the knives in Japan. It shows. If anything order the knives seperate and get a different block
