Shun Elite 7-Piece Knife Set with Block Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I purchased these Shun Elite knives as a housewarming present for a friend. Once I got them home I started to have second thoughts about giving them away.
The edges are seriously scary-sharp, and the G2 steel seems to be very close in edge holding to the new supersteel ZDP-189, also a powder steel.
The handles are substantial, perfectly shaped, and provide a nice grip even when coated with slippery liquids.
Inlaid into the handles is a small circular Shun chop which adds a very nice low-key touch to these elegant knives.
Really, if I didn't already own a set of William Henry kitchen knives which cost about twice as much, I would have immediately ordered another set for myself. They are superb knives for the price.
Properly cared for, these should last you a lifetime and give years of service.
The Shun Elite knives cut through things so easily it will make you gasp until you get used to it.

Product Description:
The ancient traditions of Japanese samurai sword-making, meet today's state-of-the-art steel technology in the new Shun Elite series of knives by Kai.Like the traditional samurai sword blade, Shun Elite is extremely sharp and flexible; ideal for food preparation.But unlike the traditional blade, Shun Elite features a center layer of a new type of "super steel" called SG-2.This new "super steel" starts out in a powdered form.Under heat and pressure it combines to make a much denser alloy which in turn creates the finest molecular structure used in knife making today.The result is an edge that will hold longer than any other steel on the market.Even better for busy chefs.Shun Elite's superior edge will respond quickly and easily to a honing steel when it needs a quick touchup.For added strength and protection, the SG-2 is clade between two outer layers of quality 410A stainless steel for beauty and tireless handling.Shun Elite features an ergonomic handle of handsome PakkaWood®.This premium-quality hardwood laminate combines the beauty and feel of hardwoods with the strength and performance of plastic.Inlaid with a traditional symbol, the handle is also enhanced by thin rings of brass and copper separating it from the bolster. With this kind of beauty and performance, Shun Elite will soon become the knife chefs reach for again and again.
