Classic Blonde // Starter Block Set // Set of 5

The Shun Classic Blonde 5-Piece Starter set brings the beauty and performance of Shun Classic to your kitchen in a new lighter, brighter look. This elegant set is the perfect way to start your fine cutlery collection. It includes three of the most essential Shun knives to handle almost any kitchen task. Regular honing with the included honing steel helps maintain your edge and prolongs the time between sharpening. The attractive Slimline bamboo knife block takes up less space on your countertop and you'll appreciate its easy-care performance, too. Since bamboo absorbs very little moisture, it doesn’t shrink or swell like other hardwoods, making it ideal for kitchen accessories. The block also has room for an additional Shun knife and a pair of shears (not included) in your slimline block.

The Shun Classic Blonde series features 69-layer Damascus-clad blades and PakkaWood handles in a light and beautiful natural wood tone. Yet behind these handcrafted knives' beauty is top function. Shun's proprietary high-performance VG-MAX steel forms the cutting core of the blade and holds its razor-sharp edge longer. The core is clad with 68 micro layers of Damascus stainless steel, then ground and bead-blasted, revealing the flowing pattern of the layered steel. The result is a line of knives that is ultra-sharp, durable, and corrosion resistant, as well as simply magnificent to behold.
