Thank you good Sir!
Shun, is on my list, if Montana Knife Company never comes back in stock. You can order direct or I think they're on Amazon as well.Anyone have a recommendation for a good set of block knives for a home chef? It’s a late Mother’s Day gift plus welcome to the new house gift for the Mrs. We are on the road so just want to get it there for her before we move in later this month.
Cost is not too much a factor, just want something she can enjoy cooking with. She’s about 5’5’’ small hands.

Wustof, I think they're sold out now but they have a block builder; you can pick what she needs or wants.
Zwilling Pro, you can get them on Amazon.
I'll let the wife abuse my Henckels for a while longer. If we move into a bigger/nicer place next year, I'll invest. But I'll be getting a good knife wrap and putting them away, when I'm done. So she doesn't wreck them.I'm trying to put together a set of Shun knives. Currently have these:
Shun Kanso Hollow Edge Nakiri Knife - 6.5"
Shun Kanso Chef's Knife - 8"

Yes. I paid quite a bit for them 17 years ago.The German made ones? Maria wants them, hundreds of dollars.

I cut the tip of my thumb off with one a few years ago. I needed a nail trim anyway.Yes.. they are pricy but very nice. And very sharp. Our OB/GYN cut the tip of his finger off with one of his, I had to do a digital block on him, he was hurting so bad he couldn’t operate.

Just noticed you were talking about a different set of German knives. But all still applies

I clicked on the website and immediately guessed it was gonna be a set for under $100 lmao. Seems it's a Lithuanian company, probably selling stamped Chinese knives.
If you want a cool looking (cheapish) knife, may I suggest this F117 inspired Santuko?
It doesn't hold an edge like a Wusthof or Zwillings will, but this was my daily "everything" knife from about 2017-2020 when I last worked as a full time cook; it's still my go-to at home.
I got a "cheap" ($250) Wusthof 6 piece knife kit when I was in high school. Going on 17 years and the chef knife is still in my rotation.
