Shun TDMS0400 Premier 4-Piece Steak Knife Set

5 stars, as if it would be any other way...
I cringed at the price for months, until I just gave in and ordered them figuring I'd probably return them. Yeah, that's a LOT of money for a damned steak knife... for four of them, really. Could they really be that nice?

First I'll give my deduction of 1 star. The "hand hammered" finish is in fact a machine hammered finish. All four steak knives have identical hammer marks... all of the blades share the same hammer marks on each side. If these were hand hammered, there would be some variation in the hammer marks, there really is none. That being said...

Shun Premier knifes are just amazing. These steak knives are no exception. The handles are light and the blade is wide and thin with the razor sharp edge pushing from the handle at a relatively aggressive cutting angle. They are delicate and precise. The perfect knife for that thick steak that can handle a 2" cut of prime rib roast without trying.

These knives are pretty large. They make all...
THe height of sharpness and quality
The Shun TDMS0400 Premier 4-Piece Steak Knife Set really exceed my expectations. They arrived super sharp and are a joy to use. The craftsmanship is unparallelled and something tells me I will have them for a lifetime. The handles are strong and the blades are crafted with precision. I've use my new knife set and they are still as sharp as the day they arrived. Looking for premium steak knives? Well, look no further. This is the set to own. Buy with confidence, and remember, "you get what you pay for."
