    • Super knives
These are the best knives I've ever used. Potatoes cut like butter. Everything I've diced or sliced has been effortless using these. I would definitely recommend these knives to anyone that wants a set of high quality knives.

    • Super BLEEPING Sharp!
Whether you deal in superlatives or expletives, it's impossible not to use one or the other in describing how sharp these knives are. Shaves arm hair. Not a scrape shave, but the hair pops right off. It's rather shocking and makes one think that perhaps that was not a smart thing to do. The bread knife is awesome. Edge guards are a must and not to protect the knife, but you! Don't try to use the case it comes with without edge guards unless you like surprises. You see, while your trying to get the handle of one knife in the little elastic band, the knife next to it gets your knuckle and then ... expletive! Lifetime Shun sharpening. Extra fingers not included. Hand wash only. And not only would I buy it again, I did buy it again but this time for my son who did balk at the price. I finally have my dream knives. So satisfied. Only use on wood, not plastic, cutting boards. ... show more

    • Great knives, but beware!
Out of the box, I recieved the carrying bag and the knives with cardboard sleeves over the blades. In the set came a honing steel with an angle guide on by the handle, the 9" slicing knife, the 9" bread knife, the 8" chef's knife, the 6" boning/filet knife, the 6" utility knife, and the 3.5" paring knife. The factory edge on all of the blades are razor sharp and they come with free lifetime sharpening. The knives are made of VG MAX steel clad in damascus steel so that they can have an extraordinarily hard steel without the blade being so brittle as to snap in half. The knives preform phenominally as any Shun knives would be expected to, but to any home kitchen users or people who have not done research be careful as the VG MAX steel is so hard that if the knife is not treated with care, it will chip and crack. Also be sure dry the blade after washing as the steel is reactive and will rust. ... show more

    • Excellent knives, cheap roll

Review Image by Zachkariagh Zachkariagh
These are legitimately the best knives I’ve ever used! They are wicked sharp, and super comfortable to use. This is my first serious set of knives, and I’m telling you it is worth every. Last. dollar. The chef’s knife gets more use than any of the other ones. The only reason I took away a star is because of the knife roll. The sharp, sharp knives cut the fabric with relative ease, and the tips dug into the roll within the first month of daily use. I’ve stabbed myself on the carving knife twice while it was rolled up on my side. Absolutely would recommend these knives as well as the whole set, but I would recommend you put your money towards a better knife roll. ... show more

    • An Excellent Knife Set for Those New to Cooking
This is an excellent knife set for those new to "real" cooking. Newly divorced, I signed up for the Hello Fresh boxes, which require quite a bit of preparation for each meal, and my existing knives were not cutting it (literally). I had been told by a professional chef that I would really only need two knives - a chef's knife and a pairing knife - and while this is true about 90% of the time, it is nice to have the other knives handy when I need them. It is SO NICE to have a sharp, quality knife to work with. I literally did not know what I was missing until I got this knife set. It is expensive, but these are knives that will never need to be replaced. ... show more

    • Nothing I can't fix though but still happy with how it all performs
It would have been 5 star's but the chef knife came with a few chips on the blade an the tip is chipped off. Nothing I can't fix though but still happy with how it all performs.

    • Awesome knives
Magnificent knife set- have been considering for a while, glad I pulled the trigger! Couldn't be happier with the quality, balance, and ability to hold an edge for long period of time.

I bought these as a gift for my wife and she loves them. sharp edges, a great variety of knives. I was going to buy one or two at a time because they are expensive, but I'm glad I just went ahead and bought this set. great bang for the buck..
