    • These knives are amazing!
Color: Brown Size: 8"
I bought these k over for my hubby who is a great cook and loves doing it. He couldn’t be happier. I’m not a cook but I actually enjoy using the smallest knife to chop up veggies for salads and such. They are sooo sharp! They feel really great in your hand too and they’re pretty, if a knife can be pretty lol. Really pleased with this set and could see getting more in the future. ... show more

    • Sharp
Color: Brown Size: 8"
My first good quality knives and I can’t believe that I was using the cheap Henkles set for so long. These are so sharp, they glide through everything. It’s scary how effortlessly these cut through everything, I will probably lose a finger one day. They also look really cool and are extremely lightweight. ... show more

    • Excellent
Color: Brown Size: 8"
These kitchen knives are amazing. Stropped them up to shaving status and I can glide through anything I'm preparing in the kitchen with crazy accuracy and nothing but the weight of the knife blade to push through even thick food products. Be wary though, this isn't the kind of knife that you use to pry open jars or hack through some thick bones or something, they're thin, and as such provide precision accuracy when cutting. They're not intended as a kitchen utility tool for every day use and you'll likely break or bend the tips if you attempt to use them for much other than cutting. I never put them through the dish washer, and never cut something not backed up by a cutting board. To do so would dull them fairly fast and greatly reduce their usefulness. At this price point, these are something you take care of. Hand wash, and be aware of what and where you're cutting. They'll hold up excellently for years to come provided you show them proper use and maintenance. I'd highly recommend these knives as a set for anyone. The three knives offered here cover my full range of needs when it comes to preparing food. Others may find you need more, but this is a perfect place to start. ... show more

    • A Great Gift for a Young Couple
Color: Brown Size: 8"
I bought these for my niece and her husband. Young couples rarely have the money for a good knife, and these are great knives. So a basic set like this made a great gift. They get to feel like they have a little luxury in their lives. I also have these knives. The knives are incredibly sharp (seriously, be careful!), and they're beautiful. You'll often hear that you need to be careful not to chip Japanese knives because they're thinner, and that's true. I've ruined some beautiful knives in my time. But with that said, these lightness, sharpness and maneuverability that you get in the trade off is well worth it to me, and mine have lasted many, many years. ... show more

    • Beautiful, Delicate Knives
Color: Brown Size: 8"
Review Image by Molly Cote
Incredible knives so far. I was originally going to buy just a chefs knife and pairing knife but when I saw this and realized it was only a little bit more for 3 knives I pulled the trigger. They're beautiful and arrived is perfect condition and very sharp. I only just got them though so I don't have a long term review yet. I also saw some reviews about them chipping and such which after researching them I'm no longer worried about as I've learned that as long as I use and maintain them properly they should not chip. I recommend anyone who buys these knives research before as they are NOT a standard kitchen knife and can not be thrown into the sink, or the dish washer or into a drawer with other things. They are very delicate and beautiful knives! So excited to have them ... show more

    • High prices don't make perfect knives
Color: Brown Size: 8"
These are high priced knives! The cost is part cosmetic and part performance. They are great looking, that's easy to see. The performance is also great. However, the ultra then edges don't inspire too much confidence. Use with care as you would any thin hard edge! Now about the fit and finish... The 8-inch chef really is just about perfect. I can't gripe much about it because true perfection just doesn't exist. It's really stunning when Shun gets it all right. The 6.5-inch utility has some waviness to the sides near the cutting edge looking down it length wise. Worst of all, the heel is VERY poorly sharpened. The knife when placed on a flat surface has a gap between two high points. Also, the bevel is about 90% to one side in this dug out region. You can feel it like a speed bump rocking the knife on a cutting board. If the other two knives in the set were not as good, this dud of a knife would be going back! Not cool Shun!!!! The 4 inch paring is also rather nice like the chef. The left and right side are not symmetrical. After a few years of sharpening one side will still have lots of edge before the damascus and the other side will be only damascus. One side somehow has more damascus down low. Oh well, I can be mad in a decade when that happens. Not bad I guess, fully functional but a cometic miss. ... show more
