Review: Keep those fingers curled and get ready to prepare 5 star meals. - Beautiful knifes. Have stayed sharp for nearly 3 years. Incredibly well balanced. Stunning knives that will up your home chef vibes immediately. Not for beginners.
Review: Extremely Sharp out of box! - I am a knife enthusiast and home cook with years of experience of restoring and sharpening western style and Japanese cutlery. I have found that most new knives out the box could use a little touch up on a strop at least. These are perfect. I guess I got lucky. I purchased these as a gift and I’m so impressed I’m may get another set. If you’re looking to buy these and want an upgrade try these knives Treat them well and they will last. Hand wash ONLY….DONT chop through bones or pry things open. About some of the negative reviews… From experience and speaking to knife makers over the years, The “VG -max” Steele they use is very hard but that also makes them susceptible to chipping if used incorrectly. This steel holds a sharp edge longer but also makes them brittle(if used properly this not a problem and can happen to any knife). So good care is needed. DO NOT use these to pry or cut through bone. Use a cleaver for heavy tasks. Chicken joints and fish are fine in my experience.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: What makes Shun worth the upgrade?**
A: 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.

**Q: How should I care for my Shun knife?**
A: 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.

**Q: What is the proper cutting technique for a Shun?**
A: 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.

**Q: How often should I sharpen my knife?**
A: 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.

**Q: What’s the correct way to pronounce Shun?**
A: 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.
