Shun Cutlery 5-Piece Knife Set Deal at Amazon

I’ve already dedicated 400 words to the masterpiece that is Shun Cutlery’s 3.5-inch Kanso paring knife, but I’m back to let you know that the entire five-piece Kanso knife set is on major sale for a limited time. The brand behind the blades has been a favorite among industry professionals and home chefs since its inception in Seki, Japan over 115 years ago. Shun’s popularity is such that its knives never stay in stock for long, especially when they’re more than $100 off at Amazon. Claim the set for yourself before it sells out. 

Shun Cutlery Kanso 5-Piece Knife Set 

I take the less-is-more approach when it comes to knife sets. The reality is that you only need a few quality blades to break down almost anything that finds its way to your cutting board. You can cross the cleaver bridge when you come to it (if you ever do). 

And this five-piece set by Shun proves my point. There’s nothing you can’t tackle with its three knives, each designed to serve a unique purpose in the kitchen. It also includes a honing steel to keep the blades sharp and a bamboo block for seamless storage. 

The 3.5-inch paring knife is perfect for everyday tasks like hulling summer strawberries and peeling garlic cloves, while the 6-inch utility knife, with its straight and narrow blade, is ideal for slicing larger produce like heirloom tomatoes. The third style is the brand’s 7-inch Santoku knife, which has a slight curve for easy chopping but is primarily designed to accommodate quick, downward cuts. The flutes etched into the side keep ingredients from sticking and fingers far away from its sharp edge. Despite their different uses, all of the blades are made from the same high-carbon stainless steel, and they’re all full-tang (meaning the blade runs through the entire length of the handle) for durability and precision. 

Amazon shoppers were just as impressed by Shun as I was when I first started using the Kanso paring knife. One wrote that it’s an “excellent set” with “wonderfully sharp and beautiful” knives, while another commented that they’ll undoubtedly “last a long time, if not a lifetime” due to their “amazing” quality.       

Don’t miss out on this opportunity to snag Shun’s five-piece Kanso knife set while it’s over $100 off at Amazon.
