The limited edition Shun Kohen Anniversary 2-Piece Knife Set comes in a metal case and includes a 6-inch Utility Knife and 8-inch Chef’s Knife, along with custom-fitted leather sheaths, each embossed with the Shun logo. The blade pattern and handle color evoke the radiance of the sun.
The Damascus blade is made from 71 alternating layers of high carbon, high chromium VG10 and VG2 stainless steels. The combination of VG10 and VG2 stainless steels results in a blade that is thin, light, and strong. As the alternating layers wear at different rates, they create micro-serrations along the cutting edge. These micro-serrations allow the knife to feel sharp longer and extend the time between sharpenings.
The D-shaped PakkaWood handles are contoured to fit comfortably in your hand and finished with embossed end caps. Resin is added to genuine hardwood to create moisture-resistant, strong, and durable PakkaWood. Hand wash and dry immediately after use. Made in Japan.
