Shun Classic Blonde Knives
Designed to offer an aesthetic alternative to the Shun Classic Line, the Shun Classic Blonde collection mirrors the design and construction of the much-loved classic line except for the lightly colored Blonde Pakkawood Handles. The traditional D-shaped handles are durable, comfortable, and decoratively adorned with an ornamental steel end cap. Shun Classic Blonde blades are comprised of a VG-Max core that is clad with 33 layers of SUS410/SUS431 steel (16 layers per side). These blades can be sharpened to an extremely fine edge that requires little maintenance. They stay razor sharp for a very long time. Shun Classic and Classic Blonde knives are an excellent choice for the chef or home cook that doesn’t want to fuss with regular honing or sharpening. They perform well, look great, and are backed by Shun’s Free Mail-In Sharpening Service.

Shun Classic Blonde 4-Piece Steak Knife Set (DMS400W)
The Shun Classic Blonde 4-Piece Steak Knife Set is for hosts who want a steak knife that matches the quality of the steak and the look of a lighter, brighter table. A razor-sharp fine edge glides through the meat and cuts fewer of its fibers, so more of the juices stay inside the steak. Because the edge is not serrated, it slices cleanly instead of tearing, and it is easier to re-sharpen when needed. Each knife is long enough to handle the largest steak, yet short enough to provide excellent control. The light blonde PakkaWood handles bring the performance of the Shun Classic Blonde line to the table in a warmer tone. The set of four suits a small dinner party and arrives in a presentation box suitable for gift-giving or storage.
FeaturesFine, non-serrated edge: A clean edge slices rather than tears, so each cut stays neat and the meat stays juicy.Edge retention at the table: Ceramic and glass plates are extremely hard on knife edges, and VG-MAX steel holds its edge for a very long time even with repeated contact against a plate.Stainless Damascus cladding: Layered stainless steel supports each core, adds stain resistance, and gives every knife the signature Classic pattern.D-shaped blonde PakkaWood handles: The light-toned handles are comfortable in either hand, durable, and do not harbor bacteria.Full composite tang: The composite construction keeps each knife light and balanced.Gift box: The presentation box makes the set ready to give and doubles as storage.Handcrafted in Seki City, Japan: Each Shun knife requires at least 100 individual steps to complete in Seki City, one of Japan’s most important blade-making centers since the 13th century.Free lifetime sharpening: Shun offers free lifetime sharpening for every knife in the set.
