Shun Knife

The local Crate and Barrel Store is closing on Sunday, and everything there is on sale.
We purchased this 6" inch Shun Chef's Knife today. These knives are made by hand in Japan in over 100 steps and have a lifetime warranty.
They can be sent to the company for sharpening, though the knife owner must pay for postage.
Tried the knife out when cooking dinner tonight. It's very sharp.

Lovely focus and depth of field. It sounds like a wonderful knife. I like this in black and white. V.

Beautiful texture and light highlighting the interesting pattern, and certainly a sharp subject. I have quite a few of these purchased from Crate and Barrel and love them. V.

Brilliant choice and capture, Walter. Best quality and best service as the Japanese consideration. V
