[QUOTE="eflyguy, post: 1383523, member: 27636"] I started to understand how good knives could be for what I think might have been a couple of years before I bought my first Shun. I had picked up a couple of Oxo knives that were so much better than the usual Henkel set you get as a wedding present, I started to look into it. Turns out the steel itself matters, they way they are made matters. I was delighted to pay over $200 for an 8" Chef's, and it's my favorite, most-used knife. I now own a nice collection of Shun, Global, and Wusthof knives that I treasure. Not a whole set of each, but a particular style from each that I find best for the task. I have a simple Global boning knife that is much more flexible than any of the others, as well as a smaller 5" utility that is great for certain tasks where the larger Shun feels a bit bulky. The grips are all different, but for certain tasks, I find different grip styles preferable. I am fortunate to have a cooks supply store that carries all of these (and more) and had the opportunity to handle each knife before purchase. We all recognize there is no one "best" motorcycle, and if we had the means, we would own one for each task. Unfortunately, most of us have to choose the best compromise. When it comes to something more affordable, most of us *can* afford to have a few in our stable, but just like motorcycles, no one manufacturer has the "best" for every task. [/QUOTE]
