This premium oak magnetic knife block has a special granite base and includes 5 beautiful Kai Shun Classic Series knives and 1 double sharpening stone, to sharpen your knives once you have lost the cut.
Each knife in the Shun Classic range has a blade with 32 layers of Damascus steel and a core of hard VG Max steel, making it much sharper than a western knife.
The 32 layers of Damascus steel make the knives extremely durable and rust-resistant, ensuring that each knife holds its edge for a long time. When the cut is lost, you can always sharpen it with its whetstone.
The layers, which create a unique pattern on each knife, help prevent food from sticking to the side of the blade.
The pakka wood handle has a chestnut (or "D") shape that fits perfectly into a right-handed grip.
The balance and overall lightness of these knives make this set a great investment, as does the presence of a sharpening stone and a stable magnetic block that protects and displays your 5 knives beautifully.
The block can hold up to 8 knives, so there is plenty of space to store existing knives as well.

FAQs
What is the ideal length for a chef's knife?
The most common length for a chef's knife is 20 cm (8 inches), which is perfect for most kitchen tasks.
However, the ideal choice depends on several factors:
Hand size: Smaller hands handle 16–18 cm blades more comfortably, while larger hands may prefer a 21–25 cm blade.
Personal habits: Those who favor broad movements and long cuts might lean toward longer knives; those who prioritize precision or work in tight spaces might prefer a shorter blade.
Experience level: Beginners tend to choose shorter, more manageable blades, while professionals often prefer 21 or 24 cm knives for greater efficiency.
In short, there is no “perfect” size for everyone — the right length should be chosen based on comfort, control, and intended use.
What’s the best way to store kitchen knives?

Can I put knives in the dishwasher?
It’s highly discouraged. High heat and aggressive detergents can damage both blade and handle. Knives can also knock against other items, dulling the edge.
What does "blade hardness" mean?
Hardness refers to how resistant the steel is, measured on the Rockwell scale (HRC). The harder the steel, the better it retains its edge—but it’s also more brittle and prone to chipping.
