Here’s what Customers Have to Say:

The Best Kinves I Own!
I am a knife nut. I have many nice knives in my kitchen such as Henckels, Sabatier, Kershaw, Boker Ceramic, and Rachel Ray. I know that most people reach for the knife that they feel is the most comfortable in thier hand. Since I bought these Rachael Ray knives, I have not reached for anything else. They feel great in your hand, and dont slip around in your hand even when wet. They come sharp out of the box. I have had these knives for nearly three months. I love to sharpen knives too. I have not had to sharpen these knives yet. They cut up onions and cut through sausage wrappers very easily, as well as anything else. I cant say enough good things about them.

As with any quality knife, do not wash these knives in the dishwasher. High quality stainless steel knives have a high carbon content. The high carbon stainless steel will rust a little if exposed to moisture and corrosive detergents in the dishwasher. There are lots of knives that don’t rust in the dishwasher, and they don’t usually hold an edge as well as high carbon stainless steel.

Great knife set
We have needed to get a good knife set for quite some time and I decided a butcher block knife set was the way to go. But I was turned off by the high prices and afraid they wouldn’t meet our expectations so I never would buy one. After reading many reviews on this set, I took a chance and purchased it. I am not a big Rachael Ray fan, so to speak, I don’t care to watch talk shows. So I didn’t purchase this set just because of her name, but I am now a fan of her products. The knife set is fabulous and worth every penny! I love how easy it is to clean both the block and the knives, they are extra sharp and so comfortable to use. Even my husband likes them, and he is a stickler for knives always being sharp and how they should handle and cut. Now he just has to teach me how to use them correctly without cutting my fingers – which I have done twice….

Great Knifes
These are the best knifes I have ever used. My fiancee got them for me over a year ago. They feel nice in your hand and have great balance. They are a handwash only item. All of the knifes are great in this set and are delivered very sharp. They slice right thru meat with hardly any pressure.
I highly recommend purchasing the diamond fingers knife sharpener to keep your knifes sharp. All knifes get dull after they are used. The sharpener is easy to use and makes these knifes great. A dull knife is a dangerous knife!

Amazon.com Review
The neon-orange handles on Gusto-Grip cutlery practically glow with the kinetic energy of television chef and talk show personality, Rachael Ray. Produced by the Australian firm Furitechnics, the high-end knives meet Ray’s personal specifications: light in weight, very sharp, super-grippy handles. And, no surprise, orange is her favorite color. A snappy gift for an aspiring chef, this set consists of a slender birch-wood block and these seven Gusto Grip knives: 3-1/2-inch paring, 5-inch boning, 6-inch serrated utility, 7-inch East/West, 8-inch bread, 8-inch carving, and a carving fork.

Strong without being heavy, each Furi Rachael Ray Gusto Grip knife is constructed from a single piece of superior German CrMoV stainless-steel alloy, with a forged bolster and strong tang. Molded around the tang is an inner core of durable polypropylene and an outer layer of synthetic rubber for all-day, non-slip comfort. One new feature is the anti-microbial agent permanently infused into the polypropylene. The handles feature the patented Furi reverse-wedge shape that prevents the hand from sliding toward the sharp blade even when wet. At the tail, a stainless-steel counterweight provides perfect balance. Furitechnics recommends washing the knives by hand and sharpening them periodically with the company’s own Diamond Fingers system. The set measures approximately 13 by 2-3/4 by 12-1/4 inches, and is covered by a limited lifetime warranty. –Ann Bieri

Customer Reviews:

FANTASTIC!!!
We purchased these knives expecting to get a cheaply made set…Boy were we surprised. They hold the edge well, and slice through tomatoes like butter. They are nice and heavy, and have a very professional feel to them. I have a $400 set of knives which don’t feel as good as these to use.

Pros: Good steel, holds edge well, easy to sharpen, VERY SHARP, Great handles, HEAVY blades.

Cons: I wish I had purchased these sooner.

Other: Be sure to purchase a nice ceramic sharpener when you get these.

Really Pleased!
This is a GREAT buy! My husband loves it. Great Quality! GREAT Price!!! A+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Customer Reviews:

Shun Knives are Beautiful, Elegant, and the Sharpest around
I have a whole set of these blades, so I’m breaking down my review to two parts: Review of the Shun Classic Blades, and the portion as it pertains to this knife in particular.

I actually have this knife in the scalloped version. Although it looks kind of cool, I don’t know if it really offers any additional advantage. I would have bought this straight version instead, except, I bought my knives as a set and the scalloped version came in my set.

The 6-1/2 inch knife is a utilitarian knife with many uses. It’s definitely one of the steady work horse knives that you’ll be reaching for all the time. It’s a little on the small side, but perfectly in the middle between the real work horse (an 8″ blade) and the smaller utility or paring knife.

Shun knives are beautiful creations period. Since I’m Asian, I love the tradition look and feel of this Japanese knife. I love the beauty of the blade and the dark, polished, Pakkawood handle. The unique “D”-shaped, Wood handles are preferable. The shape fits my hand perfectly, and the wood does not get slippery when wet – providing a very secure hold. The steel is of utmost quality and sharpness. Do not put this blade into any old electric knife sharpener! Electric knife sharpeners are made to put one angle on any blade. These blades come with a 16 degree angle and you don’t want to be changing that angle. There are electric knife sharpeners that can sharpen these knives, but you’ll have to do some research and find out which ones can be a fit with these knives. I prefer to hone with a sharpening steel and manually sharpen with a stone if necessary (and I don’t see it being necessary to touch it to a stone any time soon). The blade is sharp straight off the factory and as Alton Brown says – it’s the sharpest straight out of the factory edge as he’s ever seen.

These knives are more expensive than most, but I think it’s definitely worth it. To have the sharpest, most beautiful knife around – it’s no contest. If you are on a budget, build your collection slowly. It’s been said that there are only 3 knives that are the absolute basics for any kitchen: A 8″ Chef’s Knife, a Paring Knife, and a Long Serrated blade for cutting bread and larger items. I would add a thin utility knife and a boning knife to that list next. Then I would add those “in-between” sizes as I get more money flow in. =)

If you plan on spending any time in the kitchen, good kitchen knives are a definite must. Preparation is the bulk of cooking and when you have good knives, it cuts down on the danger of cutting yourself, it adds pleasure to the work, and it cuts down on prep time. Knives are also a very personal choice and it’s best to at least go to a store and try it out for yourself first. Shun Knives are designed by the Japanese, so remember – it’s designed for small hands. This makes it fit most women’s hands perfectly, but I’ve heard of guys with larger hands not like it so much and going back to the German knives. So definitely try it out. It’s a personal thing, it needs to fit you.

Why spend so much money on a knife? Well, if you spend a lot of time in the kitchen, and you almost always have to bust out a knife to prep a meal from scratch – why not use the best? Why spend that time with items that you love and brings you pleasure to use? Many times, it’s the small things that brings us the most pleasure in life, and I consider my Shun knives as one of those things. Having something so beautiful and yet so sharp and perfect – it makes my time cooking just that much more enjoyable.

Another good thing to know is that although the Shun Knives are usually offered for right-handers, you can get these knives for left-handers. You just need to find the guys who stock and sell those ones as they are less known, and less common.

The very best knife in my collection.
I bought this knife because my hero, Alton Brown recommended them, and as an author who has made a special study of kitchen equipment, I put a bit more weight on it than if the recommendation came from anyone else. I am not disappointed. This knife is sharp beyond imagination. I have an extensive collection of high end German knives, including Santokus and chef’s knives, and straight from the package, none of them even come close to this beauty for sharpness. I swear it can cut through relatively robust materials such as raw onions, potatoes, and mangos as if there was nothing there. Shaving the flesh from the mango seed always seems to be something of a struggle with mere mortal knives. Doing this task with this beauty is a dream.

I will not plug the Santoku design, as one’s choice between Santoku and French chef’s knife for most kitchen tasks may really be a matter of taste and familiarity. Frankly, if it were not for the insanely sharp blade on this knife, I would prefer a chef’s knife for many tasks, especially for those veggies where the rocking motion of the French design comes into play.

I will also not wax lyrical about the scalloping, as I really see little advantage to it. I have an unscalloped German Santoku which comes very close in sharpness, and it is the quality of the edge, not the scalloping which makes the difference.

If you want effortless prep work, get this knife!

Good Chef’s knife replacement
I’ve been using a Chef’s knife (7″) for many years, when I went looking for a new blade, I settled on Shun, and I thought I would get one. But when I hefted it, I didn’t like it compared to the Santoku. (I’ve heard it referred to as the Japanese Chef’s knife).

So I got the Santoku instead, and I have not regretted it. I like it much better than the traditional (French?) Chef’s knife, even for Western-style cooking.

With regards to the Shun Classic….this is a fabulous knife. I’ve used quite a few Chef’s knives, including my friends’ Wusthoff and Henkel, and I was not nearly as impressed with those as I was when I first used the Shun Santoku.
This is a very, very sharp edge that is holding up very well.

The few times I prefer not to use the Shun Chinese Chef knife (like for “lighter” duty), I pick up the Santoku.
You may not believe it, but it’s so sharp, it doesn’t stick to things, that I can chop _much_ faster, with more consistency, almost like the “pros” on TV.

The handle is shaped nicely. The wood is not slippery even when wet, the only drawback…you may not like the shape if you’re left-handed, as it is assymetrical.

You gotta try this knife…it is really, really good!

Amazon.com Review
A member of the stylish Shun Classic line, this multipurpose Santoku knife comfortably handles any kitchen cutting need from chopping to mincing, dicing, and slicing. Resembling something between a chef’s knife and a cleaver, the tool features a wide blade and measures 6-1/2 inches in length. Versatile at its core, this high-quality piece chops walnuts as easily as it slices apples.

Leveraging a 90-year history of superior workmanship, Shun knives are precision-forged in Japan by renowned blade manufacturer KAI. Using technologically advanced processes, a VG-10 “super steel” core is clad with 16 layers of high-carbon stainless steel to produce a rust-free Damascus-look blade. The Damascus detailing not only enhances the knife’s aesthetic appeal, it also prevents morsels from sticking and avoids crushing or damaging foods. Forming a comfortable D-shaped hold, a fused blend of hardwood veneers and resin comprise the unique ebony Pakkawood handle. A traditionally offset stainless-steel bolster protects knuckles while a steel end-cap finishes the piece. Although dishwasher-safe, hand washing is recommended. This product includes a lifetime warranty. – Amy Arnold

RUST!!!!! Really?!?!
I received this set as a gift for Christmas. I use some of them, don’t really use others… I take care of them as per the instructions that came with them. I mean, they are knives so it’s not rocket science, right???

Well, they are all rusting! The knives and the scissors. This is not a cheap set of knives and the blades are all rusting. I can’t believe my eyes and it’s embarrassing because when I have my mother over, she wonders why I’m not using them… Thinks her money went to waste but I don’t want to embarrass her further by making her think she bought an inferior product. In the process now of trying to get a replacement to a completely different set because an entire set cannot be simply defective and must be poorly made. Wish I could get a refund and buy a completely different brand.

I’d give it zero stars if that were an option. Don’t waste your money.

Not too bad
This is an ok knife set. The block that comes with it is cheaply made. The slots for the steak knives are too close together so the handles (which are a tacky rubber) rub against one another, so you may accidentally pull out two knives when only trying to take one out. The bread knife is too serrated to the point where you destroy bread as opposed to cutting through it. They seem to hold an edge farily well for the price, and I like the size of the french knife. I’ve come to the realization that a knife set like this is really unnecessary for me personally. I’d rather buy the knives I need. This was a 10th Anniversary gift for work, so I’m glad I have it and thank work for it. It should last awhile if I keep them sharp (and safe).
