Shun – KSVBS0499 – Sora Five Piece Student Set – Chef’s Knives

Sora is Japanese for “sky,” and the Shun Sora collection soars high in performance while offering down-to-earth value. With a traditional Japanese handle and blade shape, Sora knives deliver smooth, razor-sharp cutting and a lightweight feel that’s easy to control. The composite blade reveals a beautiful wavy pattern characteristic of Japanese swordsmithing.

Special 5-piece set includes a 3 1/2″ paring knife, 8″ chef’s knife, 9″ bread knife, honing steel and a sturdy nylon 8-slot knife roll with a detachable shoulder strap.

Essential cutlery set is perfect for cooking classes or culinary school, allowing you to carry your favorite knives like professional chefs do.

Designed for top safety and convenience, the zippered knife roll has 8 elasticized, reinforced pockets for knives, plus 5 interior pockets and compartments.

Each blade features a VG-10 “super steel” core clad in stainless steel on each side for a san mai edge that is stain-resistant.

Cutting edge is braze-welded to a mirror-polished Japanese steel upper, creating a traditional rippled pattern.

Handle is a textured polymer blend for a secure grip and easy care.
