Perfect slices, elegant presentation.
The Kai Shun Classic 2 Piece Carving Set pairs a 20 cm carving knife with a 16 cm carving fork, offering everything you need for precision slicing and serving. The carving knife’s razor-sharp blade glides through meat, poultry, or fish, keeping juices and flavour locked in while the pointed tip allows easy trimming around bones. The two-pronged carving fork holds your food securely in place, acting as a natural extension of your hand, for clean, professional slices every time. Beautifully boxed, this set makes a perfect gift or a refined addition to your own kitchen.
Handcrafted in Japan, it takes more than 100 steps to make each Shun knife. The Shun Classic series features beautiful Damascus-clad blades and D-shaped ebony PakkaWood handles. Yet behind these handcrafted knives’ beauty is function; razor-sharp blades offer top performance.
Shun Classic’s proprietary high-performance VG-MAX steel, which provides incredible edge retention, is clad with 34 layers of Damascus stainless steel on each side (a total of 69 layers). Ground and bead-blasted, revealing the flowing pattern of the layered steel. The result is a line of knives that are sharp, durable, corrosion-resistant, and beautiful to behold.

Use & Care:
Using Your Shun Knife
- Use a smooth slicing or push cutting motion rather than forceful chopping
- Avoid twisting, prying or bending the blade sideways
- Do not cut bones, joints, frozen foods or very hard items
- Allow the fine edge to do the work for the best performance
Cutting Surfaces
- Use wooden boards, wood composites or medium-firm synthetic boards
- Avoid glass, marble, granite, stone or ceramic surfaces
- Hard surfaces will dull or damage the blade edge quickly
Cleaning & Drying
- Hand wash only using warm water and mild dish soap
- Avoid citrus-based soaps, bleach or abrasive cleaners
- Rinse thoroughly after washing
- Dry immediately with a soft towel
- Do not soak or leave the knife in standing water
- Never place in the dishwasher
Storage
- Store in a knife block, magnetic strip, drawer tray or blade guard
- Ensure the blade is fully dry before storage
- Do not store loose items in a drawer without protection
Honing & Sharpening
- Hone regularly to realign the edge and maintain sharpness
- Use a suitable honing steel or guided system
- When dull, sharpen with whetstones or a professional service
- Maintain the original 16° double bevel edge for best results
Proper care will preserve the sharpness, beauty and performance of your Shun Classic knife for many years of confident cooking.
