Shun Premier 4 Piece Steak Knife Set

Shun Premier 4 Piece Steak Knife Set

Four handcrafted Japanese steak knives with 5-inch VG-MAX Damascus blades, hammered finishes, and walnut-colored Pakkawood handles

The Shun Premier 4 Piece Steak Knife Set brings the cutting performance of Japanese kitchen knives to the dining table. Each knife features a razor-sharp, non-serrated 5-inch blade that slices cleanly through steak, chops, and other cooked meats without the tearing action of a serrated edge. Handcrafted in Japan, the knives combine a VG-MAX steel cutting core, layered Damascus cladding, and a distinctive hammered finish with contoured walnut-colored Pakkawood handles. Presented as a coordinated set of four, they are made for dinners where both the food and the knives deserve attention.

A Better Cut at the Table

Most conventional steak knives rely on serrated edges to saw through meat. Shun takes a different approach. The Premier steak knives use fine, plain cutting edges that move smoothly through cooked meat, leaving a cleaner cut and helping preserve its texture and juices.

The 5-inch blades offer enough length for a substantial steak while remaining easy to control at the table. Their VG-MAX stainless steel cores are clad with 68 additional layers of Damascus steel, creating a 69-layer construction that supports and protects the cutting edge. Each blade is sharpened to 16 degrees per side for precise cutting.

The hammered tsuchime finish gives the Premier collection its recognizable appearance and helps reduce food adhesion. The contoured Pakkawood handles have a warm walnut color, resist moisture, and provide a comfortable grip. Together, these details make the knives a natural companion to a carefully prepared steak dinner.

The set arrives in an elegant presentation box suitable for gifting or storage.

Signature Features

Four matching 5-inch steak knives: A coordinated set for four place settings, with blade length suited to steaks, chops, and other cooked meats.

69-layer Damascus construction: Each VG-MAX core is surrounded by 68 layers of stainless steel cladding for support, protection, and a distinctive layered appearance.

Hand-hammered tsuchime finish: The textured blade surface helps food release while giving each knife the recognizable Shun Premier look.

16-degree edge per side: A fine double-beveled edge delivers precise, controlled cutting.

Walnut-colored Pakkawood handles: Contoured handles resist moisture and provide a comfortable, secure grip at the table.

Handcrafted in Japan: Made using Japanese knife-making techniques and Shun's attention to blade geometry and finishing.

From Our Founder

"A really good steak knife should cut cleanly without making you work at it. That's what I appreciate about the Shun Premier set. These are proper fine-edged knives, not the usual serrated steak knives, and the five-inch blades feel just right at the table. The hammered steel and walnut-colored handles are beautiful, but it's the quality of the cut that makes them worth owning."

Tony Boulton, Founder, Design & Grace
