Product Details
Kai Shun adapts centuries-old samurai blacksmithing to make exceptional Japanese knives and kitchen tools for the modern cook. These kitchen shears from their Select 100 range feature 3mm thick, top-quality steel blades with a micro-serration that holds whatever it is cutting in position. A narrow blade in the front and a wide blade in the back makes it great for cutting crab legs, slicing pizza, snipping herbs, and much more. A screw allows easy dismantling and cleaning.
Why we love it
‘A good pair of kitchen scissors are essential in my kitchen, providing a lazy way to cut kimchi (for using in a veggie burger or pancake), herbs, and other ingredients that need a bit of ‘processing’—if you’re planning on using it as ravioli or dumpling filling, for example.’About The Brand
Kai
Since its founding in 1908, Kai knives have held a cult status in Japan—and since their European debut in 1980, the rest of the world has caught on. Taking their inspiration from samurai blacksmithing but incorporating modern manufacturing processes, Kai has mastered the art of making extremely sharp, durable knives that feel effortless to use. All their knives are manufactured in Seki, the knife capital of Japan. As their products reached global popularity, Kai has expanded their range to include European shapes like the chef’s knife as well as ambidextrous handles, such as in the Kai Shun Premier and Kai Shun Nagare ranges.
