Shun Kanso 4 Pc Steak Knife Set – SWTS0430

TREAT YOUR STEAK RIGHT

Once you’ve grilled the perfect steak, use the perfect steak knives to make sure your meal stays delicious. To keep steaks flavorful, you need to keep more of the juices inside the steak. The knives in this beautiful set are hand-sharpened to a 16° edge on each side to glide through your steak, cutting fewer of the capillaries in the meat and keeping more of the juices inside. You will be astonished at what a difference these fine-edged steak knives can make in the flavor and enjoyment of your steaks.

Shun Kanso Steak Knife Set is part of the Shun Kanso series. Kanso is a design principle based on Zen philosophy. It means “simplicity,” but simplicity that is achieved by eliminating the non-essential. In Kanso, we took away anything that doesn’t matter and kept everything that does: high-performance steel, razor-sharp edge, perfect balance, and precision cutting control. The steel is Japanese AUS10A—highly refined, high-carbon, vanadium stainless steel that takes a razor-sharp edge and holds it longer. Kanso’s Heritage finish hides scratches and gives Kanso a rustic look that just improves with age. The handle is made of a wood called tagayasan or wenge, which is sometimes known in Japan as “iron sword wood.” The handle contouring enables an easy chef’s grip. Full-tang construction provides strength, balance, and easy cutting control. Like all Shun knives, Kanso is sharpened to a 16° cutting angle each side to cut cleanly and help preserve food’s freshness and best taste.
