Overview
Storing flat in a drawer instead of on the counter is the idea behind this Shun set. A beechwood block holds the knives, each of which has a hammered finish and a Pakkawood handle.
The reason to buy is the full everyday lineup in a drawer, including a bread knife. The limitation is that the listing gives no drawer size, so fit has to be checked, and the block is built for a fixed number of slots.
Who it's for
A home cook furnishing a kitchen who wants chef, paring, utility and bread knives together. People whose drawers are narrow or shallow should measure first.
Pros and cons
- Bread knife included
- Drawer storage saves counter
- Hammered finish reduces drag
- VG-MAX core with Damascus layers
- Drawer size not listed
- No honing steel listed
- Fixed block layout
Performance notes
The hammered finish is described as reducing drag so food sticks less to the blade. A VG-MAX core allows a narrow edge angle that cuts with little pressure. The Pakkawood handles are shaped for a secure grip.
