When you cook and enjoy it, dull knives can really ruin it. I am afraid I will cut my fingers off with a sharp one though :/ But I LOVE THESE and I loved Alton Brown explaining them and now you have me on the Great Knife Hunt and Shuns are amazing. I am so happy that you got them! They are gorgeous.

Hmm. I have no idea. But Shun just came into prominence quite recently. Also in Manila, I'm not sure people pay attention to their cookware or their knives much since it's the maids who cook? Hmmmm.

they are BEAUTIFUL. especially the shun kajis. but ehhh...can't afford that set right now. :)

go to williams-sonoma. preferebly a large store (versus a mall store) because their selection of knives are amazing. the store associates also do know their stuff so they can definitely help you. :) you can also try it out while you're there. that's how my shuns chose me. i tried them at the store. :)

hahaha. i've been obsessing over shun knives for quite awhile now, actually. since i first heard about it, and throughout the past couple of months, people around me have been getting shuns and have been raving about them.

i'm a big "kitchen stuff" geek and so when the opportunity to purchase a new set presented itself (i.e. i have some cash and i NEED new knives. it just aligned like that!) i went crazy.

basta, people who know me know that my happy place is the kitchen section of any given department store. :D

oh, and...lottery tayo!!!! waaaaah. have you heard anything yet?
