Review: Incredible set. - The balance, finish and sharpness on these are nuts. The Damascus finish is incredible. They came extremely sharp. I got them sharper but I have a very high end sharpening system, wicked edge and use .5 diamond emulsion with a strop These knives are different than the European variety. They are made for precision, not toughness. Do not think about cutting through bones. I have some Zwilling pros for that if needed. These are thin, harder steel and much sharper. You can chip them if you don't know what you are doing. Make sure to use a good wooden cutting board so you don't mess up the edge If you need a decent set for the kitchen and haven't used Japanese style knives, go for Henckels or learn what you are doing first. You are comparing a pickup truck to a Porsche. Shun has the Porsche price tag also You have to maintain these. Clean properly oil etc. no dumping in the sink like cheap knives. These knives are highly recommended, but not for the untrained person. You need to understand the proper techniques to fully utilize these.
Review: Beautifully Made - Wonderful knives. But users should learn to sharpen or have a reliable service. These knives are at their best when properly sharpened. But, do not use carbide or electric sharpeners.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: What makes Shun worth the upgrade?**
A: Shun knives are handcrafted in Japan with premium steel such as VG-MAX. Extra sharp out of the box, they stay sharp longer and deliver unmatched precision. Shun knives are more than a tool, they’re a lifelong cooking experience.

**Q: How should I care for my Shun knife?**
A: Always hand wash with mild soap and dry immediately. Never put your Shun knife in the dishwasher. Use a soft wood cutting board like Hinoki to protect your knife edge when cutting. Do not use Shun for chopping through bone or frozen ingredients.

**Q: What is the proper cutting technique for a Shun?**
A: Use a locomotive motion when cutting - move the blade forward or back instead of pressing straight down. This lets the blade do the work, reduces fatigue, and helps keep your Shun in top condition.

**Q: How often should I sharpen my knife?**
A: Notice your Shun losing its edge? Hone weekly to re-align the blade. If honing no longer works, send it in for free sharpening or follow our online tutorials to hone and sharpen at home.

**Q: What’s the correct way to pronounce Shun?**
A: Say 'Shoon' (rhymes with moon). Shun is the Japanese concept of enjoying food at its peak. We honor this tradition by crafting fine cutlery that’s always at the peak of its perfection.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The BEST knives we have ever owned!
*by M***R on July 18, 2017*

We had previously had a set of Chicago Cutlery knives and they were good for a while but then were needing to be sharpened every-other use. So we started looking for top quality knives that would last a long time. After some research and looking around at various brick-&-mortar stores, I decided to give these Shun knives a go. Amazon was the only place that had this set in stock so I bit the bullet on the price and considered it an investment. BOY WAS IT A GREAT INVESTMENT! From Day 1 that we used these knives you can tell the superior craftsmanship and the extreme sharpness of the blades. Food prep is a breeze and the items look great with the excellent slicing performed by these knives. These look to be the last knife set that I will ever buy, now I just need to round out the knife block and purchase the knives not included with this set. Pros - Sharpest knives around Cons - A little extra care is needed when washing the knives but it is a con that eventually turns into a pro because your knives will last longer. If you are on the fence about the price, just pull the trigger because these are the BEST knives hands down!
