Make sure every kitchen task is covered with the Shun Sora 6-Piece Block Set. This 11-slot bamboo block comes with the Shun Sora 3.5-inch Paring Knife, 6-inch Utility Knife, and 8-inch Chef's Knife. The Shun Sora Combination Honing Steel and a set of herb shears are also included. The paring knife is an essential tool to handle smaller cutting tasks, such as peeling, coring, and pitting. The utility knife has a narrow, straight blade and sharp tip to handle detail work, along with slicing and chopping. The chef's knife is an all-purpose knife that can mince herbs, dice vegetables, and slice through thick rinds and large cuts of meat. The honing steel realigns knife blades between sharpenings. Use the herb shears for snipping fresh herbs. The block protects knife blades while safely storing cutlery, and the extra slots allow for expansion of your collection.
The composite steel blades consist of a VG10 san mai cutting edge with a Japanese 420J stainless steel upper. VG10 stainless steel includes vanadium for wear resistance and cobalt for strength and hardness. The two blade sections are laser cut and welded together, with the superior VG10 steel along the cutting edge. The edge is hand-sharpened to a razor-sharp 16-degree cutting angle. The knife handles are made from a polymer blend for a contemporary look and secure grip.
The Shun Sora collection is affordable yet beautiful, combining modern design with Japanese tradition. Each knife in the Shun Sora collection boasts all of the essential features that make Shun a top choice of professional chefs.
