Zwilling Kanren 7Pc Block Set (54040-007)

Kanren, which means “connection” in Japanese, is a collection from Zwilling that beautifully illustrates the union of German engineering with Japanese craftsmanship. This ideal starter knife block set comes equipped with the ever-useful paring knife, prep knife, chef’s knife, and bread knife. Shears and a sharpening steel round out the set, which stores conveniently in a beautiful acacia wood block. The FC61 core of the knives is embedded in 48 layers of stainless steel which make up the unique Damascus pattern on the knife, protecting the blade from corrosion and chipping. The cutting edge is Honbazuke-honed in Seki, Japan, a three-stage grinding, sharpening, and polishing process that results in razor-like sharpness. With its curved bolster and comfortable black linen Micarta handle, this knife delivers the ultimate in ergonomic, fatigue-free cutting.
