## Questions & Answers

**Q: What makes Shun worth the upgrade?**
A: Shun knives are handcrafted in Japan with premium steel such as VG-MAX. Extra sharp out of the box, they stay sharp longer and deliver unmatched precision. Shun knives are more than a tool, they’re a lifelong cooking experience.

**Q: How should I care for my Shun knife?**
A: Always hand wash with mild soap and dry immediately. Never put your Shun knife in the dishwasher. Use a soft wood cutting board like Hinoki to protect your knife edge when cutting. Do not use Shun for chopping through bone or frozen ingredients.

**Q: What is the proper cutting technique for a Shun?**
A: Use a locomotive motion when cutting - move the blade forward or back instead of pressing straight down. This lets the blade do the work, reduces fatigue, and helps keep your Shun in top condition.

**Q: How often should I sharpen my knife?**
A: Notice your Shun losing its edge? Hone weekly to re-align the blade. If honing no longer works, send it in for free sharpening or follow our online tutorials to hone and sharpen at home.

**Q: What’s the correct way to pronounce Shun?**
A: Say 'Shoon' (rhymes with moon). Shun is the Japanese concept of enjoying food at its peak. We honor this tradition by crafting fine cutlery that’s always at the peak of its perfection.

*by M***U on 30 November 2025*

J’utilise ce couteau Kai Shun depuis plusieurs semaines, et honnêtement, c’est l’un des meilleurs produits de cuisine que j’ai pu tester. On comprend immédiatement pourquoi la marque est tant appréciée des chefs : la qualité de coupe est tout simplement incroyable. 🔪 Un tranchant impressionnant La lame en acier damassé est d’une finesse remarquable. Elle glisse littéralement à travers : • les légumes durs, • les tomates sans les écraser, • le poisson, • les viandes. On a vraiment l’impression d’utiliser un outil professionnel à chaque utilisation. 🪵 Prise en main parfaite Le manche en pakkawood est ergonomique et très agréable au toucher. Le couteau est bien équilibré, pas trop lourd, ce qui permet une coupe fluide même sur de longues préparations. 🎨 Un objet magnifique Au-delà de son efficacité, c’est un très bel objet : la lame damassée a un rendu sublime, avec des motifs uniques. On sent que c’est un couteau forgé avec soin. 🧼 Entretien simple (si on fait attention) Il suffit de : • le laver à la main, • le sécher immédiatement, • et éviter les planches trop dures. En échange, il garde un tranchant incroyable très longtemps. ✔️ Points forts • Qualité de coupe exceptionnelle • Lame damassée sublime • Très bon équilibre • Matériaux premium • Sensation professionnelle en main ❗ Petit bémol Comme tous les couteaux japonais haut de gamme, il faut éviter les chocs contre les os et ne pas le mettre au lave-vaisselle — mais c’est normal pour ce type d’acier.
