Community Notes
"r/chefknives opinion on the Shun Classic line is mixed. While the Damascus pattern is attractive and the VG-MAX steel performs adequately, the community notes these are "ground thick out of the box" and "designed to appeal to the western housewife." Users often recommend exploring thinner, more performance-oriented Japanese alternatives at this price point."
