anyone have an opinion on these knives?

I really like Shun knives (though, there are better and cheaper alternatives), but I don't care too much for the Ken Onion Shun because of the handles.
Personally, they don't really feel very good in my hands.
I would highly recommend heading over to http://www.foodieforums.com/vbulletin/forumdisplay.php?6-Fred-s-Cutlery-Forum and read up on what people have to say about knives. -
i have a couple ken onion shun's and i love them both. i'm tempted to buy these.
-
I especially like the Ken Onions because of the handles. Strange world, huh?

i have that big one and a five inch, but i want a seven inch as well (that is a seven, correct?) -
How expensive are they? Is it worth just buying cheap ones and sharpening them? If so is it easy to sharpen?
-
Jason, the smaller one is an 8 inch. The larger, a 10.

yeah, that's what i meant.
;o) -
The larger one was 300 and the smaller was 200. Sometimes W.S. has a sale on them. I steel them, but my butcher sharpens them for me.
-
300.00 and 200.00? My wife would leave me for sure
-
Quick! Go buy them :evil: :woohoo:

i must have an eight and a five. i'd probably end up slicing one of my limbs off with a ten. -
I have no idea about knives. What makes a knife? Why are they so expensive?
-
The 10 inch gives you a little extra "oomph" and a longer reach. I actually find myself using the 8 for more things. If you get one, I suggest the 8. Oh, you already have one.

Beats me. But they feel like an extention of your arm and will last forever if you take care of them.
