Handcrafted in Japan, the Shun Premier Blonde collection is distinguished by hammered blades that evoke the artistry of traditional hand-forged knives. Each one features a blonde-hued PakkaWood handle that provides a modern look. This essential set includes seven knives, a honing steel, Kai multipurpose shears and a sleek bamboo storage block.

• Striking hammered finish (tsuchime in Japanese) of blade reduces drag when cutting and helps quickly release food.
