I recently picked up a Shun paring knife and have a question. First, the fit and finish, ergos, and quality are excellent. I noticed that the higher carbon steel is showing with use, and that is fine but a small nick came off the edge. It seems the higher carbon part of the steel is missing, almost as if the blade chipped. The damage is not from chipping but normal cutting. Large enough to be seen with the naked eye and easily catches a finger nail.
Is this normal or cause for concern? Something one may send to Shun to examine? Or, just sharpen it out and don't worry about it.
