Review: Best kitchen knifes for the money. Period. - Almost supernaturally sharp! Note: If you are at all clumsy, DO NOT buy these knives. These will cut you if you look at them wrong. [Very slight exaggeration.] I am a knife collector (mostly high-end pocket knives) so I'm not easily impressed, but I do like a deal. Simply put: I've never used a better kitchen knife for the money. Period. These things make my Wustofs feel like dollar store knives. The factory edge is literally 'hair-whitling' sharp. Not 'shaving sharp.' That's comparatively easy to achieve. Look up the difference. You will be amazed. With the santoku (Asian blade) chef's knife, you can actually cut a 0.5mm thin slice off of a tomato under only the weight of the knife itself. Just pull back. As to the quality. They seem incredibly solid and well-made. The blade steel is a San Mai 'Damascus' construction, essentially sandwiching an extremely hard cutting edge steel (maybe 62 Rockwell or higher) between two layers of slightly softer multi-alloy swirled (folded) Damascus steel. This is ideal as it allows the cutting edge to be crazy sharp and to stay that way for longer between sharpenings, while the cladding steel is able to take more of a beating without chipping or being damaged. Plus, they just look damned good!! Subtle, but good. The weight is great, if a little on the heavy side. The handle shape is comfortable and confidence-inspiring. The balance is good. Not perfect, but very good. Maybe the tiniest bit tang-heavy. The one BIG downside, if you're not a really festidious user, is that they are not going to be stainless. Many really good steels aren't. This means that you absolutely MUST clean and dry them immediately after use. Not after dinner, letting them sit covered in tomato juice for an hour. I mean right after you make the last cut. For me, it's worth it. I'll update this review in a few months when I know more about their durability and edge retention.
Review: Anniversary Gift Idea - Steel - These knives were an anniversary gift for our steel anniversary, and they could not have been more perfect. The SHAN ZU Damascus knife set is absolutely beautiful—the craftsmanship and Damascus pattern really stand out and feel special. My husband has been using them regularly and has genuinely loved them. They are extremely sharp, well-balanced, and feel professional in hand. Cutting and prep are effortless, and you can tell right away that these are high-quality knives made with care. This set made a meaningful and practical gift that we’ll use for years to come. If you’re looking for a sharp, elegant knife set—especially for a special occasion—I highly recommend these.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Gorgeous Damascus chef knives
*by J***B on October 24, 2025*

These knives are heavy and beautiful. Incredibly sharp and flawless. I bought a top German brand chef knife that starts with a Z and it looked used. It had scratches on the blade and the handle. I ordered a second German knife this time directly from the Z in Germany and looked even worse. These are like art and they work flawlessly for a home cook like myself and as I'm told for chefs alike.
