The SENKEN Imperial 16-Piece Japanese Knife Block Set brings the precision and discipline of Japanese blademaking tradition to your kitchen, pairing high-carbon stainless steel blades with smoothly finished wood handles.

Eight kitchen knives, six matching steak knives, kitchen scissors, and an acacia hardwood block give you a complete collection for preparation, serving, and storage.

The knives feature a 15° double-bevel edge, delivering the fine, precise cuts Japanese knives are known for, while high-carbon steel provides the hardness needed to take and hold a keen edge.

Each blade is etched with a traditional Damascus pattern, paying homage to a knifemaking tradition whose history stretches back over 1,000 years.

Contoured pakkawood handles provide a firm, comfortable grip, with rich wood tones that give Imperial its classic character. An integrated finger guard adds protection while you cut.

A natural acacia hardwood knife block keeps every knife and accessory organized and within easy reach, creating a coordinated display that complements both traditional and modern kitchens.

Customer photo review of Imperial 16-Piece Japanese Knife Block Set — High-Carbon Steel with Smooth Pakkawood Handles

These knives are awesome. I gave them to my mother for Christmas and she absolutely loves them. We opened them immediately and washed them so we could use the steak knives for the steak we had for dinner. They cut the steak like butter with no effort, are easy to hold, and look great. Highly recommend these knives for your kitchen or as a gift!

They are gorgeous & have a nice weight and def sharp! Ok, I only cut into a hamburger but wowza- so happy I ordered these and I have been researching diff sets for awhile! Planned on keeping in a cabinet but for now they�ll be out for display on the counter. Get the knives people. Update - so far they�re very sharp and cut steak, sausage, ribs, potatoes - still love them!

I got this knife block set about a year ago and I absolutely love it! I didn't realize how nice a quality set of knives looks until I saw it. I love that the handles are wooden and that each knife is heavy duty, meaning they are very sturdy. Not only do they look unique, but they are also very functional. The knives are all of good quality and sharp, but not to the point of being dangerous.
