Use & Care
Use

- It is not advisable to use any knife but a meat cleaver to cut through bone, as other blades can be easily damaged.
Care
- Hand-wash with warm water and a mild detergent; rinse and dry immediately.
- Avoid cleaners containing bleach or citrus extracts.
- Sharpen as needed. With regular use and honing once a week, your knife should not need sharpening more than once or twice a year.
- Sharpen your knife at home using a whetstone or knife sharpener designed to sharpen at a 16-degree angle, or have it sharpened by a professional.
- Store knife in a safe place to protect its edge and prevent injury.

Major Disappointment

The knives themselves are quite good, but the knife block I was sent is not the one pictured, and it is not the one I ordered. The knife set was purchased as a gift for my wife, who loves cooking. The package arrived; it was, as i say, not the round oak knife block pictured. I spoke to customer service. I was sent UPS labels for a return. The package was sent back, and a week or so later I got the replacement. It was the very same thing. I sent it back. A week later I got the replacement. and for the third time it was the wrong knife block. At this point I finally gave up. This was purchased as a gift, a birthday gift, so you can imagine my disappointment. The Shun knives deserve a five star rating; Williams Sonoma does not.

Happy with my set!

I have needed these knives for many years! My son gave them to me as a gift, hint that I needed better knives. So happy with this set. With proper care and maintenance, these knives will last you a life time. And, you will appreciate them when you use them for years to come. If you know how to use knives and what they are for, it gets the job done with ease. Pricey, but worth every penny.

Knives cut everything as if it were butter!

These knives are like magic. They cut everything as if it were butter! Yes, they are very expensive, but I have been impressed with the quality. You need to be ready to hand wash them, as they would be ruined in the dishwasher.

fragile

If you are going to cut anything other than butter stay away from these knifes. Bought the set and half of them are chipped. Read the reviews carefully they are prone to this. imperfections in the steel are the issue and the mfg and retailer will not back this up. when you spend this kind of $ expecting something close to perfection and they are this fragile it is very disappointing. Look at other brands, not this one.

You'll Never Regret It!

I realized that it was time for a major upgrade in my kitchen appliances, cookware and cutlery. One area that I knew I needed to address was the purchase of quality knives. My wife and I have had the same kitchen knives from when we were married over 20 years ago. I looked into quite a few options and decided to invest in Shun despite my initial sticker shock. I was struck by the craftsmanship that goes into the Kaji blades and decided to purchase the 8 piece set. Once I got to the Williams-Sonoma store, I looked at the other knives included in the 11 piece set and opted to spend the extra money to get the larger set. I've not regretted it at all, either! I've used my new knives literally every day since then and to have such an arsenal of laser-sharp knives at my disposal has been equally wonderful as it was strange. I wasn't used to having such a variety; nor was I used to having such quality steel to effortlessly slice through vegetables! The heavy cherry wood block is as beautiful as it is functional. My only regret with this purchase is that I didn't buy these sooner!

Beautiful knives with superior craftsmanship.

We were in desperate need of some new knives so we purchased the 11 piece set which is comprised of nine knives, a steel and knife block. I was so impressed the first time I used them than I went back to the store and bought a carving set and one additional knife. So now I have 11 knives and a beautiful carving fork. Last night I grilled a pork roast on my ceramic grill, it was delicious, but I’m not reviewing my cooking so I will quickly move on to the carving. When I started carving the four pound roast, using one of the knives, I did not have to hold the roast in place with a fork. The knife was so sharp that it slice paper thin slices with little effort. I have carved a lot of meat in my lifetime but this was the best and easiest EVER! So my advice is buy these knives.....you will love them!

Great knife set

Bought the set at great price， love it！I use them everyday, super easy to use and fit my hand perfectly, easy to clean as well, only thing is you can not sharp them by yourself, so better take good care of them.

Fantastic set of knives!

Probably the best set of knives you will ever own! I researched for months, until I came down to two top brands. I headed to Williams-Sonoma for some expert advice. As soon as I held the Shun in my hand, I knew this was it! The handle grip is quite comfortable. A beautiful set of knives. Received quite a few compliments at Thanksgiving. Shun Kaji certainly rates 5 stars for excellence!
