Shun’s are pretty, but they chip if you look at them wrong. Still work though! Depending where the chip is.

Those are some solid looking knives. Good price, too.

Even if they are banged around.

My most used knife in a kitchen was this janky 10 inch blade* that had the front two inches busted off. Cut and prepped just as well as any other knife in the kitchen.

Edit: spelling

If you’re debating between Wüsthot or Henckels, skip both and get Messermeister.

Arguably the best “western” chef knives available.
