Where to start... Probably to say that there is a part of me that really doesn't want to sell this.
I had never used a Chef's knife before. Growing up my family just had some Old Hickory/Chicago Cutlery knives and when my wife and I got married she had a decent chef's knife I began using. I wanted something better though and I bought this knife. My only reason for getting rid of it is that I wanted to try some different knives out and got a couple of new knives in and promised the wife if I bought them I'd let go of this one to recoup some cash. Otherwise I'd keep it.
Some things to know:
This knife isn't very old (2 months?).
Only used on vegetables (we're vegan).
Nothing hard (root vegetables get the cleaver) - onions, garlic, bell pepper.
Factory edge is unchanged - only steeled twice (shaves hair)
Always cleaned immediately and dried afterwards by hand. NO DISHWASHER
Only used on the wood butcher block you see; no plastic boards or bamboo.
Always placed in a knife block after drying.
I don't believe I have the box. I will package it very well.
With all that being said the knife my show some honest use but it is a very clean example of a Shun knife. These knives get great reviews and cut like a dream.
Price: $90 shipped!
Sorry for bad photos - hard to get good light at 2:00 a.m.
