Shun Premier Paring Knife, 4"

This knife is so awesome it gets me excited about cooking because I know I get to use it. This was my first purchase after reading ""Knives Cooks Love"" and the first piece to my new quality knife collection. It is not feather lite like I thought it would be after reading about it online and in the book. It feels sturdy in your hand and the handle is contoured so that it feels like it was made for your hand weather you are chopping with it or peeling. My hands are on the small side, but I found that this can be used to chop small things like garlic and the offset of the blade is enough to keep my knuckles off the board. It is a steal at the sale price, highly recommended

I have large hands, this knife is very comfortable. The blade is amazing in design and has a Very sharp edge. At this price it is a steal. If you have shun classic knives as I do, don't think ever knife has to match in design. I buy knives for form, fit and function

We are sharp knife addicts. Love the performance, feel and quality of the Shun cutlery. Never settle for second best!

This knife was a gift for my husband. It is a needed companion knife to his 8”Shun. Now he wants a case to take them with him when we go to his mother’s house. Her knives don't cut it. :)

The blade, especially at the tip is so thin that it will bend if you look at it. The one I returned had a rough edge on the top couple of inches. The blade will not hold an edge and I have owned many Seki steel knives. The soligen steel blades are much superior.
