This is a good quality knife, but I'm not convinced it's worth the cost. Just doesn't get real sharp. I purchased the Shun sharpening steel, along with the knife, and followed the video instructions to a T. Still not impressed

Not so sure it's worth the cost.

While I love the knife I am also very disappointed and wondering if this is typical or abnormal. As such I would welcome any comments.

Incredibly Fragile

 But it’s very light weight and easily breakable. I ended up breaking it while cutting a large carcass of meat. I ended up returning mine. My feedback to shun company —- make it a tiny bit sturdier

 I ended up returning mine. My feedback to shun company —- make it a tiny bit sturdier.

Cuts meat and vegetables like butter..... however it’s very brittle.

 The presentation of the knife when you open it is really cheap. Which I don’t care in terms of the actual knife - but if giving this as a gift it would be nice if it had nicer packaging and a quality sheath included like a lot of much cheaper knives have.

Good knife in cheap cardboard packaging

All in all, I would buy these if these where to get lost or something. In the cost around $100 to $200, these are the best in my opinion. I have tried many Chef knife before I came to these knifes but I do also use my Henckels also, because I love them both. I did received them very quick from Amazon, their time from payment to ship is like the same day which is why I love about Amazon

 I also own the J.A. Henckels Twin Two Star II 8inch chef knife, I do love the weight and balance better. However the great thing about these Japanese knives are they have a much lower angle on the blade

The handle is very well balance with blade. The D shaped handle works really well (Shun makes a left handed one but I think you might need to order it directly thought Shun). Shun offer free knife sharping for the life of you or the knife, depends on which one comes last. They stay sharp for a very long time

Great Knife

This is my fourth Shun knife and it looks like I'm going for the complete set. Me, and the rest of my crew! You see, I work as a sous chef in a busy restaurant and over the years have amassed two (yes 2!) complete sets of german knives, great knives themselves. But when my exec. chef recently threw over his beloved forschner knives for these shuns, I had to found out why

 My only complaint about the santoku is that it doesn't seem to keep it's sharp edge as long; it's a little thicker than the other blades and it takes more "steel" time to get it back to razor sharp. Pretty well impressed, I moved on to the big work horse - the 10 in. chef. Ok, it's now my favorite

 It instantly became my favorite! I used it for the bulk of my chopping and dicing (and I do alot of that). The d-shaped handles are fabulous; they give you a good grip, comfortable for the long haul and slip-resistant when your fingers are wet or oily.

They don't come any better!

A trusted favorite preferred by both home chefs and culinary professionals, the 8" Fibrox Pro chef's knife can handle nearly every kitchen task imaginable. Crafted with a comfortable handle, superior weight and balance, and a razor sharp edge that rarely requires re-sharpening, this knife is an essential tool for every kitchen. key features high-quality, lightweight European steel. handle design reduces hand and wrist fatigue. fit for dicing, mincing, chopping, slicing, and shredding. long, sloping curved blade that “Rocks” for effortless mincing and chopping. flat spine for extra power to slice through hard-skinned items. non-slip patented Fibrox Pro handle for a secure and comfortable grip No matter the hand size. National sanitary foundation (NSF) approved and dishwasher safe. be good to your knives and they're be good to you. Following these simple guidelines will ensure that you get the longest life out of your knife! Victorinox Swiss Army recommends washing all knives by hand. For best results, hand wash your knives with a soapy cloth and dry immediately. while Fibrox Pro knives are dishwasher safe, We recommend hand washing as dishwashers are designed to spray water at a relatively high pressure, which can jostle the silverware and cause the knives to collide, dulling the edge. sharpening for optimum performance, knives should be honed after every couple of uses. Proper and frequent use of a honing steel will keep your knives sharper and performing at their best. formerly Forschner in 1937 Victorinox began selling cutlery in America through a Connecticut distributor called R. H. Forschner & Co. A well-known manufacturer of butcher scales, Forschner soon became the exclusive U. S. Distributor for Victorinox knives, and was the name by which Victorinox knives were known.

Wirecutter

This knife is comfortable to use, durable, and pretty sharp. It’s by far the best knife you can buy for under $50.

America's Test Kitchen

Our longtime inexpensive favorite remains a pleasure to use. With a sharp, gently curved blade, it effortlessly dispatched every task we set before it, mincing garlic precisely and breaking down chicken and dense butternut squash with authority. Its light weight and rounded spine made it easy to wield for long periods, and its textured plastic handle was comfortable to grip for hands of all sizes.

Victorinox Fibrox  8" chef, 3" paring, Mercer Milenia 10" Curved bread knife. Don't waste your money on a block set as most are of lessor quality and you will not use most of the knives in it. A must is a good cutting board, polyethelene, wood. On the softer side so you don't destroy the edge on your knife

 A must is a good cutting board, polyethelene, wood. On the softer side so you don't destroy the edge on your knife.

Hello everybody

Newbie here, I have decided to buy a set of knifes for my kitchen and I need a suggestion, I am not a professional cook however I would like to have a set of knifes in my kitchen. My budget is around 250$. I have no clue about knife design and types.

Looking for a set of knifes for my kitchen.

 Grandma taught me how to cook and I’ve done a lot of home cooking since she started me out on meatloaf at 5 years old. I’ve used Henkel and Wusthoff since then and got the Vic 10+ years ago at the advice of a chef friend.

Look at Victorinox Fibrox lineup, specifically the 8” chef’s knife. It’s like $30 and legitimately an excellent knife. Grandma taught me how to cook and I’ve done a lot of home cooking since she started me out on meatloaf at 5 years old. I’ve used Henkel and Wusthoff since then and got the Vic 10+ years ago at the advice of a chef friend

I digress, knives and the associated care/sharpening is not in my wheelhouse. I’ve always just used the standard Henckels block set from Macy’s and sharpened with those pull thru sharpeners that destroy the edge over time. I have finally learned how to use a strop though which! 

This isn’t really a gift idea. She asked me to her find one since the holiday sale season is upon us.

A hardy/BIFL but not crazy expensive kitchen knife set for the girlfriend who loves to cook.

 I accidentally cut myself just bumping the edge against my hand. I can understand why it's so well-reviewed. It puts my inexpensive forged Chef's knife to shame. That was well-reviewed too, but it was heavy and not as maneuverable

 It puts my inexpensive forged Chef's knife to shame. That was well-reviewed too, but it was heavy and not as maneuverable. The only worry for me is that Victorinox says the blade is ground to a 15-degree angle, and I've read that the steel in these Victorinox Fibrox knives is not of sufficient hardness for that compared to a Zwillings or a Wusthof. We'll see how the edge holds over time

 I recently bought a honing steel which might help keep the edge true even with the softer steel.

Better than expected.  Very happy.

 Victorinox chefs knives are standard among chefs as a true workhorse knife. Keep them sharp, dont put them in the dish washer, and enjoy the massive improvement to your life.

The best Quality to Price ratio is Victorinox Fibrox for the 8 inch chefs knife and a paring knife, and Mercer Culinary for an 8in offset bread knife. Total cost will be around $55 for all three combined, and you will be set for life. Victorinox chefs knives are standard among chefs as a true workhorse knife. Keep them sharp, dont put them in the dish washer, and enjoy the massive improvement to your life

Would love recommendations for a really good set of kitchen knives. I love cooking but blunt/cheap knives really take the joy out of it. I am in the UK so bonus points for something easily available for me. Also any tips on maintaining them would be appreciated.  Thanks!

  Secondly, the blade. The shape of the blade is pretty much "just about right" for most tasks. What I mean by this is that the belly is deep, deeper than most Japanese knives but not as deep as say, Kramer knives; it also has a very nice curve profile. This makes it easy to rock fast while still allowing you to make accurate straight cuts

 It's clear that the designers/engineers tried to address the best compromises for this knife, and selected the proper materials to hit this very low price point- this makes the knife an absolutely great value and one of the best examples of how a chef knife should be designed as a kitchen tool. You can always pay more for chef knives with more exotic blades and handles (or name brands..

Very well designed and thought out

What to Like: 1. A nicely shaped and textured handle 2. A fairly thick spine for increased rigidity 3. Slightly curved edge allows rocking motion for fine chopping 4

 SHARP!!! 5. Lightweight, lighter than you'd expect for it's size.  Combined, these traits make for a an easy to hold, easy to maneuver, easy to use chef's knife at an outstanding price point.
