This is one incredible kitchen knife. It fits the hand perfectly, is weighted just right, has an ideal rocker profile for chopping and sliciing, and is crazy wicked sharp!!
The bamboo stand that came with the knife, however, was a piece of junk. It was broken right out of the box, and so, instead of gluing it back together, I just threw it away. The Shun now rests in my old knife rack where it replaced a useless cleaver I never used. Remember to place your knife upside down (blade facing up) in order to protect it's precision hand-honed sharpness. Did I mention this sucker is sharp? It goes through roots and vegetables like a hot knife through butter. It is sharper than a scalpal. In other words, be aware of your fingers.
If you do a lot of cuting and chopping, you will be absolutely thrilled with this knife.Get more detail about Ken Onion by Shun 8-Inch Chef's Knife.
