Shun Hikari Prep Knives, Set of 2

Named Hikari after the Japanese word for “illumination,” these masterfully crafted, award-winning knives showcase stunning birch PakkaWood handles and a “hornet’s nest” blade pattern. The blade edges are extraordinarily sharp and long-lasting, with microserrations that reduce friction for clean, effortless slicing and chopping. Our two-piece set is an excellent introduction to the Hikari Collection.

• Two-piece set includes 6″ chef’s knife and 4″ paring knife.
• Dual-core stainless-steel blades are clad on each side with 71 micro layers of high-carbon, high-chromium stainless steel to create a “hornet’s nest” pattern reminiscent of a Damascus-style blade.
• Exceedingly sharp cutting edges, hand-sharpened to a 16-degree angle, are long-lasting and easy to maintain.
• Polished bolster promotes a comfortable grip.
• Durable birch PakkaWood handle resists moisture and bacteria and has a beautiful low-gloss finish.
• Embossed end cap adds beauty and balance.
• Handle offers a superb grip for both left- and right-handed users.
• Handcrafted in Japan.
