Shun <\/p>\n

\u201cShun\u201d (shoon) is a concept at the very heart of Japanese cuisine. In Japanese, shun is the word used to describe local, seasonal food when it is at the peak of its flavor and freshness\u2014at the peak of its perfection. <\/p>\n

Shun Cutlery is known for its exquisite beauty and ultra-premium performance. Yet as beautiful as Shun is on the outside, and as beautifully as it performs in your kitchen, its true beauty may be in what you don\u2019t see. <\/p>\n

Handcrafted in Japan <\/p>\n

Shun is dedicated to maintaining this ancient tradition by continuing to handcraft each knife in our Seki City facilities. Each piece of this fine kitchen cutlery takes at least 100 individual steps to complete. While we maintain these ancient traditions of handcrafted quality, we also take advantage of thoroughly modern, premium materials and state-of-the-art technology to provide that traditional quality to millions of professional chefs and avid home cooks throughout the world. <\/p>\n

Knife Steel is Essential <\/p>\n

Heat treatment\u2014an invisible, yet vital, process. This exacting process is fundamentally important to ensuring that your Shun provides lasting value. In heat treatment, the metal is heated and cooled to change its microstructure, bringing out its very best properties. With precise heat treatment, blade steel becomes finer grained, making it stronger and harder so blades can be thinner, sharper, and give you a longer-lasting edge. Shun\u2019s experts are, quite simply, masters of the heat treatment process. <\/p>\n

Quality and Performance <\/p>\n

Shun is the exact moment when a fruit has reached its ideal ripeness, when a vegetable is at its very best, or when meat is at its most flavorful. Home cooks and professional chefs alike celebrate shun in their kitchens, eagerly awaiting each season\u2019s bounty and serving every ingredient in its proper time. <\/p>\n

Shun Cutlery proudly takes its name from this Japanese culinary tradition of eating the freshest food at the perfect moment. We took this name to honor this seasonal, mindful way of eating and as a mark of our dedication to making kitchen cutlery that is always at the peak of its perfection, too. <\/p>\n

SANDWICH KNIFE: Utility knives are sometimes called sandwich knives. They’re perfect for preparing almost everything that goes into a sandwich \u2013 from thin-skinned vegetables like tomatoes to meats and cheeses.
HIGH-QUALITY CONSTRUCTION: Constructed with Shun’s proprietary VG-MAX cutting core and clad in 68 layers of stainless Damascus, this kitchen utility knife is corrosion and stain resistant with a strong, razor-sharp edge.
COMFORTABLE HANDLE: The D-shaped, ebony-finished Pakkawood handle is durable, beautiful, doesn’t harbor bacteria, and comfortable to use for both left- and right-handed users.
TRADITIONAL, ARTISAN CUTLERY: Inspired by the traditions of ancient Japan, Shun knives are handcrafted by highly skilled artisans to produce blades of unparalleled quality and beauty.
