Knife Care Kit - Shun Classic
DESIGNED TO HELP YOU KEEP YOUR SHUN KNIVES IN OPTIMAL CONDITION
The Shun Knife Care Kit has the tools you’ll need to help maintain your Shuns in their best condition. Inspired by the style of care and tools traditionally used to keep samurai swords in optimal condition, Shun created a convenient kit designed to help keep your “kitchen swords” in beautiful condition, too.
The Shun Knife Care Kit lets you deal with natural tarnishing, discoloration, and even surface rust to protect your investment in Shun cutlery. The kit provides a selection of tools, from polishing cloths and sticks to a Japanese-style talc ball, all designed to help you remove those little spots that can develop, even with the best of care. Of course, preventative maintenance is the best maintenance. So the first step in keeping your Shuns in top condition is the simple daily care we recommend: use proper cutting technique, cut on an appropriate surface, hand wash in mild detergent, dry thoroughly with an absorbent towel (and especially along the thin cutting edge), and allow to air-dry before storage.
To catch any problems at their earliest stage, when they’re easiest to correct, we recommend examining your knives whenever you use them. The sooner you catch a potential problem, the less of a problem it will be. Other than thoughtful preventative care, the Shun Knife Care Kit is your best line of defense in keeping your Shuns performing and looking their best.
Set includes: 2 oz. of Food-Grade Knife Oil, Rust Removal and Polishing Boards, Uchiko Powder Ball, Shun Polishing Cloths, and Complete instructions.
AT THE PEAK OF PERFECTION
In Japan, “shun” (pronounced shoon) is the word used to describe local, seasonal food at the very peak of its flavor and freshness. Shun is a time—the exact moment—when a fruit has reached its perfect ripeness, when a vegetable is at its very best, when meat is at its most flavorful. Home cooks and professional chefs alike celebrate shun in their kitchens, eagerly awaiting each season’s bounty and serving every ingredient in its proper time. Kai named their fine cutlery Shun to honor this tradition of seasonal, mindful eating and as a mark of their dedication to making kitchen cutlery that is always at the peak of its perfection, too.
So now you know; just say, “Shoon” (rhymes with “moon”) for kitchen cutlery that’s designed to help keep your freshest ingredients at their very best.
