CASE KNIVES
High quality, extremely collectible handmade knives since the 1800s.
SHOP CASE KNIVESThe Shun Premier 8-Piece Professional Block Set brings the artistry and precision of traditional Japanese knife-making to your kitchen. Handcrafted in Seki, Japan, each blade is thin, lightweight, and designed for professional performance, combining centuries of craftsmanship with modern materials. This complete set provides six essential knives, a honing steel, and a bamboo block, giving you everything you need for versatile, reliable kitchen prep.
Each blade features a VG-MAX “super steel” core, clad on both sides with 34 microthin layers of stainless steel. This combination ensures extreme hardness, long-lasting sharpness, and resistance to corrosion. The hammered tsuchime finish reduces drag while cutting and helps food release smoothly from the blade, making every slice more efficient. Every knife is engineered for precision, control, and balance, meeting the demands of both professional chefs and serious home cooks.
The walnut-finished PakkaWood handles are designed for comfort and performance. Their two-position grip allows for a trigger-style hold during pull cuts and an optimal balance point for pinch cuts, providing versatility for multiple techniques. Stainless-steel end caps embossed with the Shun logo add strength, stability, and even weight distribution, ensuring every cut feels natural and controlled.
