What makes Shun worth the upgrade?

Shun knives are handcrafted in Japan with premium steel such as VG-MAX. Extra sharp out of the box, they stay sharp longer and deliver unmatched precision. Shun knives are more than a tool, they’re a lifelong cooking experience.

How should I care for my Shun knife?

Always hand wash with mild soap and dry immediately. Never put your Shun knife in the dishwasher. Use a soft wood cutting board like Hinoki to protect your knife edge when cutting. Do not use Shun for chopping through bone or frozen ingredients.

What is the proper cutting technique for a Shun?

Use a locomotive motion when cutting - move the blade forward or back instead of pressing straight down. This lets the blade do the work, reduces fatigue, and helps keep your Shun in top condition.

How often should I sharpen my knife?

Notice your Shun losing its edge? Hone weekly to re-align the blade. If honing no longer works, send it in for free sharpening or follow our online tutorials to hone and sharpen at home.

What’s the correct way to pronounce Shun?

Say 'Shoon' (rhymes with moon). Shun is the Japanese concept of enjoying food at its peak. We honor this tradition by crafting fine cutlery that’s always at the peak of its perfection.

Top notch as always with Shun

Upgraded from my 8 year old 10 piece classic and as always with Shun the knives are awesome. But like many or multiple reviews state the block is not worthless but close. I'm going to attempt to cut it and give it a little more angle because I won't be able to get the knives out without moving it from underneath the cabinet because it's too vertical.

Expensive but awesome.

My old Shuns were getting pretty worn down after sharpening over the last 15 years. Decided to upgrade. These are the sharpest knives I've ever owned. Great quality, functionality, and looks.

Best knives

I LOVE these knives. My husband wanted them and we needed new knives since our many years old knives were worn out. Wasn’t too sure about them at first but after using them for a couple of weeks I’m sold!

Worth every penny!

Absolutely love love love these knives after a good friend recommended that so cough up some real cash and buy Kai-Shun. I was so hesitant at first but now… I FREAKING LOVE THESE. Little to no effort to slice and very comfortable grip. I have lefties and righties at home so this is the perfect set! Wish the scissors came with it … but I’ll buy it soon :)

Super sharp knives

Super sharp blades, lightweight. Disappointing that the block arrived dented and starting to split. Amazon and the seller (their bots anyway) each pointed to the other claiming someone else was responsible for shipping issues. Amazon customer service could only offer a return of the entire set. It took some searching, but finally figured out how to contact the seller. They replaced the block immediately.
