Shun Classic 2 Piece Asian Knife Set, 7-Inch Chef's Knife, 4.5-Inch Prep Knife

The Shun 2 piece Asian Knife set includes 2 of the most useful knives to accomplish virtually any task in your kitchen. The Shun Classic Asian Multi-Prep Knife features a 5-in. blade with a unique triangular shape that is ideal for maneuvering around bones and between joints. Known as a honesuki in Japan, this knife's smaller size provides complete cutting control as you process poultry and other proteins. It's perfect for other food prep chores, too, from slicing shallots to trimming vegetables.

The 7-Inch Asian Cook's Knife is an all-purpose knife. Ideal for meat and fish, it performs beautifully on vegetables, too. Although the blade profile is narrower than the traditional chef's knife, it still offers plenty of knuckle clearance when cutting on a board. If you are looking for a lighter, more nimble multi-purpose kitchen knife, the Shun Classic Asian Cook's Knife is sure to become your go-to knife for a wide range of food preparation tasks.
