Two popular and quite stunning Shun Elite knives come in this gift-boxed set designed for preparing Asian cuisine: the 4-1/2-inch wide cook's, also known as the Deba-style mini chef's knife, and the traditional Japanese honesuki, or boning knife. The former is excellent at chopping and mincing herbs and vegetables, while the latter agilely de-bones chicken and beef with its unique angled tip. Each knife features a sleek black handle, made of a hardwood-resin fusion known as PakkaWood, which showcases an inlaid traditional Japanese emblem and fine rings of copper and brass near the bolster. A distinctive flourish, called a "hamon," along the edge of the blade recalls the samurai swords once made in Seki City, Japan, where Shun Elites are handcrafted. The knives come nestled in a bamboo box for superb presentation and safe storage.

Shun Elite knives stand out for their incredible sharpness, sharper even than Shun Classics, thanks to the newest powdered steel alloy known as SG-2. The process used to make SG-2 results in a fine-grained, very dense blend of ingredients that creates a smooth-as-silk knife edge. Shun edges are formed to an unusually keen 16 degree angle, which is one reason they're so prized among chefs who value uniformly thin slices, a necessity in Japanese cuisine. Covered by a lifetime warranty, Shun Elite knives should be washed and dried--carefully--by hand. --Ann Bieri
