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

NSF Certified <\/p>\n

Shun Sora knives are NSF certified for use in commercial kitchens. <\/p>\n

The NSF develops health standards and certification programs that help maintain the very highest levels of food safety. <\/p>\n

In Japanese, Sora means “sky.” With Sora’s proprietary Composite Blade Technology, this beautiful series offers sky-high value by bringing together a VG10 three-layer san mai cutting edge with a polished Japanese 420J stainless steel upper. <\/p>\n

This technology puts high-performance material exactly where it’s needed most – on the cutting edge. <\/p>\n

Knife Handle <\/h3>\n

The Sora line features a traditional handle design with textured TPE which provides excellent grip, balance, and easy maintenance. Topped on the end of the handle is the Shun logo in stainless steel which enhances and balances the handle. <\/p>\n

Composite Blade Technology <\/h3>\n

Sora uses Kai’s proprietary Composite Blade technology to bring together a VG10 three-layer san mai cutting edge with a Japanese 420J stainless steel upper. The two blade sections are laser cut, then fit together like pieces of a jigsaw puzzle. <\/p>\n

Braze welding permanently joins them. The attractie wavy pattern at the join is based on traditional Japanese sword hamon lines. <\/p>\n

Layered Steel <\/h3>\n

The Sora line features VG10 clad with a layer of stainless steel on each side to support and protect, then hand-sharpened to 16 degrees each side. <\/p>\n
