See my other posts in this thread, but to sum it up: Shun knives are considered a joke by serious cooks.
The 600$ Shun is trying to charge students for that selection of knives is a rip off. No one needs more than 2-3 knives for at least the first couple years of their career, which will be spent doing basic prep and line cooking. You won’t be doing any butchering or specialized work till further on anyways.
And when you do, do your research and buy them piece by piece. At that point you’ll be working with and learning from more experienced chefs who will be more than happy to point you in the right direction.
Here’s a suggestion to get you started:
8” Chefs knife
Paring knife
Bread knife
Ceramic Honing Rod
knife roll
peeler
All of this can be had for around a 1/3 of the price Shun charging and I guarantee you these tools will serve you way better.
This might be the best knife value on Amazon, Misono 440, 210 gyuto. Stainless. It is righty biased but not strongly so. r/https://www.amazon.com/dp/B000XT2Z2Y/ref=psdc_14309861_t1_B000XT4GJO

Agree with others that Amazon is not a place to shop for knives. But who else would sell Dalstrong?
