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.
