The Shun 3-Piece Sharpening System makes it easy to sharpen your knives using a whetstone. The bamboo stand is designed with a built-in 16° angle to match the precise 16° cutting edge of Shun knives. This ensures your blade is sharpened to its original performance standard. Simply keep the blade flat and parallel to the working surface as you pull it across the stone—no need to worry about holding the right angle yourself.Once you've sharpened your knife, you can maintain the edge for a longer period of time by honing regularly with the included honing steel.
