Best knife set!!!

Do not monogram!

I mistakenly ordered the introductory knife set, which are well performing knives are very sharp and ergonomically excellent in my hands. I wish I had bought individual knives and the fact that I monogram them made them unreturnable. I don’t regret Buying the knives, but I do regret monogramming them

Great knife set

I tried these out with the Shun rep in the store and absolutely fell in love with these knives. She encouraged me to try the higher end Shun knives as well, but I preferred these for my smallish hands. I have an older set of Henkel knives that I’ve been looking to improve, but a set from another German knife maker was quite disappointing. The Shun knives greatly exceeded my expectations! I usually avoid reps/sales people, but in this instance I’m very pleased that I got to try all of their demo knives, and the basic set was my favorite!

Chips in the blade

I decided to try the Shun knives since they had such great reviews. In less than a year ALL of the knives have tiny chips in the blade. I have never had this happen with any of my other knives. I sent them back and had to pay for shipping there and back. They basically re-sharpened it and sent it back to at my expense. No replacement - nothing. Where did all those little pieces of metal go? Into my food? I would strongly suggest you buy a different product.

Beautiful and Practical

This is the best and practical knife set set. Shun products live up to their reputation. They are very well balanced, stay sharp and are a work of art.

Great Set

I have had for a week and love the balance, feel and performance of this set. I use them everyday. The quality of the knives far outweigh the only two issues I have with this set: The scissors feel kind of cheap in your hand but cut well so far and the knives are a bit loose fitting in the butcher block.

Great except..

Happy with all the pieces except the block. I wasn’t expecting a custom fit, but there’s sooo much wiggling and the handles even knock each other. Also, the 8” is shown fitted into bottom slot; but the dot is too short and will chip the 8” if not careful.
