Agree with cjb, shun makes some amazing quality knives. Just know your gonna pay a pretty penny for em. Also study a little about them, as the honing and maintenance process is different than than a classic French style knife. Shun has many different grades and levels, quality is dependent a lot on cold steel, how many sheets folded on the blade, handle quality etc. I work in the business so have had a lot of time with them. One last call out is the blade can be so sharp that they can chip if they stick in the board, so the right cutting board is important. This is due to a different grade angle on the blade. Hope that helps.
