I am a home cook who uses knives almost every day. I bought (4) of the classics: 8" kiritsuke, paring, 6" utility and 6" boning/fillet. All very sharp right out of the box. The website pictures make the handles look a little plastic, but they are not. Very nice looking knives. I bought them almost two years ago and they maintained a very sharp edge (I always use plastic cutting board and hand wash & dry). I finally had to sharpen (not hone) the boning knife a couple of months ago. I think that they are definitely worth the money.

You can’t beat authentic Japanese knives made in the city of Skai. Those Sword craftsman have been at their craft for centuries and have it down pat. Pricey but worth it. Light and nimble, comfortable handle and cuts like a Hot Knife thru Butter. What more could you want.

I love these knives, knowing that I pay a bit of a premium for the aesthetic. This is well suited to a specific task of preparing cuts of meat for baptismm by fire. This would not be an introductory knife purchase, as a standard utility knife is largely capable of fulfilling the role that this knife does, but it’s a decent addition to the lineup for those who like to accessorize or ideally those with a specific need. I have not yet tried to sharpen it myself but the lifetime mail-in sharpening is nice to have available.

Sharp as can be even with extended use. Feels great in your hand. Easy to work with. One of my favorites.

It's what I call an excellent trim knife. Very sharp and excellent to trim and cut up roasts, steaks and debone chicken and other meat cuts. A pleasure to use, because it is sharp, well balanced and has a nice thin blade that really glides through meat. Well made knife and I have no regrets.

This is a great-little filleting knife. The wicked-sharp edge, and camber of the blade makes removing fish skin (etc.) easy peasy.Awesome Shun quality. Keeps its’ edge FAR longer than any other blade. Mind its brittleness however, as it is folded steel.

So this was purchased for my son but it stays at my house. I have the Forschner fibrox hand filet knife that has some movement and just love it. This knife will come in handy when you don't want movement in a filet knife. As in deboning meat w/ large bones, as in a boston butt. The tip on this knive is very fine and allows you to slip under silver skin w/ great ease. A pricey purchase, but as long as you take care of it, will last you a lifetime. If you purchase expensive knives, you really should invest in a knife bar for your wall or side of your cabinet. Who wants to put knives in a drawer, certainly not when you pay this price. But all knives benefit from being put on a knife bar. The Norpro alum 19 inch is a good one. Love the older Ikea one.
