Shun Kanso 4-Piece BBQ Set

Shun Kanso 4-Piece BBQ Set

Shun built this Kanso set around the three knives needed for grill-worthy proteins of all types, and adds an 8-slot knife roll to carry them to the smoker. The 12-inch hollow ground brisket knife slices brisket, ham and turkey and comes with its own wooden sheath. In barbecue, where knives meet salt, pepper and abrasive rubs, the rustic Kanso finish conceals the scratches of a well-used tool.

A boning and fillet knife trims fat and silver skin before the cook, and the 5-inch Asian multi-prep knife handles poultry and small prep and is excellent for cleaning silver skin and fat caps. The 12-inch reach of the brisket knife gives uniform slices for catering trays. A knife roll keeps all three protected on the way to a cook-off. Each knife has a Tagayasan handle and a solid AUS10A blade. The set suits backyard pitmasters and competition cooks, and it makes a memorable gift for anyone who takes barbecue seriously.

Care and Use

Hand wash with warm water and a gentle dish soap, then dry with a soft towel. Do not put the knife in the dishwasher or leave it in a sink of soapy water.
Cut on a medium-soft wood board such as hinoki, and avoid glass, stone and ceramic surfaces.
Do not cut bones, joints or frozen food. If the blade sticks, lift it straight up rather than twisting it.

Warranty and Sharpening
