Product Description
For use with your Shun cutlery, this naturally beautiful Bamboo block provides slots for your essentials, including a honing steel, wide knife or cleaver and shears. In addition, it can house a set of 6 Steak Knives. It's the ideal way to keep cutlery at hand while ensuring precision blades remain sharp and safely stored when not in use. Bamboo is also highly durable and easily wipes clean with a damp cloth. Made in the ancient city of Seki, Japan, Shun knives rely on extremely sharp blades, made of Japanese VG10 steel clad with 32 layers (16 on each side) of a proprietary blend of high-carbon stainless pounded so thin, it delivers precision slicing, cutting and chopping that is unprecedented by any of its German competitors.

excellent product August 9, 2008
Joan Gordon (Norwich, CT)
The product, the Shun22 slot knife block is superb. I do have to be careful entering the knife into the appropriate slot so as not to nick the surface of the bamboo finish. The even darker than expected color of my unit is most handsome. I think the slot numbers are perfect because any more onenings for smaller knives would be superfluous. It has been admired by friends.

I bought this product on January 10th as a Christmas gift for my husband. The order arrived around the 20th, but the wrong block had been sent to me. The staff was very friendly and helpful in helping me fix this. The correct order came on January 14th. My husband loves this product.
Very big and holds everything well December 4, 2007

Does exactly what I need; holds a LOT of knives and does not dull them.
