So cool seeing you on “ the Appalachian channel” Cool store you guys got going on . I only have a couple favorite channels and I like seeing them when they collaborate together.

Is that knife at the end of the video the narukami? Thinking about buying one of those.

Why is this video giving "Late night TV shopping channel" vibes? I kept waiting for the phone number to pop up and tell me to call now for a second set, ABSOLUTELY FREE!

Shuns are good, if a bit overpriced.
They are made for the western market and people who want a japenese knife but dont want a japanese knife at the same time.
They are still quite heavy (230g for a gyuto 20cm compared to an average traditional knife at 160g, 20cm) and sharpened to 16° compared to the 9-12° of most japanese knifes.

This makes them more sturdy, but they still get very sharp.
Blade profile is also tailored to western cooks and allows a rocking motion.

In the end, its a choice if you want to pay a bit too much for the name. The finish is very good on them though. They are not the traditional japanese "lasers" but they don't have to be.

Kind of a merge of European an japanese knifes, which doesn't have to be bad but you should certainly check if they feel good in your hand and accomodate your cutting style.

I have a santoku Shun knife in Damascus vg-10 and a mosaic pin in the handle. It’s really nice and absolutely scary sharp

[drewlehmann]

Did Shun just admit that their acid-etched Damascus cladding is fake?!
Did Shun just admit that their Damascus cladding is actually sand-blasted?!

[TripleEEDC]

That moment when you see "Color Changing Blade" in the title and think it's some new-fangled technology but it's really just cladded carbon steel.

Damn it I wanted to like this, I need a real chefs blade!!

Cutco does the free sharpening thing. You just pay postage. I realize cutco is no comparison in quality but he said nobody else does the free sharpening. haha. Cutco will try to get you to sell their knives too.

I am a proponent of Shun for a mass-produced Japanese product. Kinda "entry level" for decent Japanese knives, but you made me laugh with the "a little more money" comment.

Hello SMKW, Just remember that it's okay to drink, just don't celebrate the 4th w/a 5th!!! Just say'n. Be safe and take care, "God Bless", sincerely, Randy. 🙏😇👊

[zoothief]

Entry level blade with journeyman prices

[zoothief]

Sharp is not a real measure of a knife, it’s more a measure of user.

[cyber-brain]

What a silly and factually incorrect comparison to swords.

[zoothief]
