Review: Granddaughter loves it! - We bought this knife as a birthday gift for our granddaughter who is in culinary school. She absolutely loves it! It is, like all Shun knifes, extremely sharp; the breast of our 24 pound Thanksgiving turkey was sliced as if it were softened butter. It's great for carving large roasts and creating thin slices of beef or ham for sandwiches. Shun knives are exceptionally well made and are a joy to use. They are truly works of art and deserve a place in your kitchen with one caveat... Shun knives stay sharp for a very long time, but if and when it needs to be sharpened, either send it to a Shun facility as described in the included instructions, or search out an experienced person who has previously sharpened Shun knives and most definitely knows what they are doing.
Review: Slice and dice to your heart’s content - Mind blowing. I watched my in-house chef use this knife to cut through a fresh salmon fillet with one easy slice (Then we enjoyed the cooked salmon). It slid across the fillet as if someone was skating on just Zamboni-ed ice. So, cost? If you want a quality kitchen utensil, this is it. We purchased some Shun knives in 2006. They are still with us and slicing away, with a periodic sharpening. Shun also offers free sharpening. By the way, it is actually a cooked meat (Brisket, Chicken and other meats) knife. It cuts easily through the meat between the bones of cooked Babyback ribs, just avoid the bones. It’s NOT a clever, but it is wicked sharp. Enjoy slicing your carnivorous meal this next Holiday.

## 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.
