This easy-to-use honing rod gently realigns the cutting edges of your Shun cutlery, enabling you to maintain the razor-sharp blades between sharpenings. The Kanso honing steel features two surfaces: smooth for day-to-day honing and micro-ribbed for weekly honing. Plus, a built-in angle on the handle makes it easy to hone knives to the correct 16° Shun angle.
Shun’s Kanso series is based on the Zen philosophy of simplicity—removing anything that doesn’t matter and keeping only the essentials. Kanso’s beautiful handle is made of tagayasan wood, traditionally used in Japan for making samurai sword handles. A heritage finish on the handle hides scratches, delivering a rustic look that improves with age. Handcrafted in Japan, the Kanso collection pairs exceptional performance with timeless artistry.
