Don't throw this in your dishwasher, or you'll ruin it. Also, invest (it isn't expensive) in a decent soft-wood cutting board, and you'll experience a much sharper knife for much longer. If you read the instructions that come with it, plastic boards will dull it very quickly, and for the love of God in heaven, don't use a glass, corian, or other hard board with ANY knives.
Knife is very easily maintained by use of ceramic hones and leather strop. Sharpens easily on 1000 - 3000 grit stones, if you are familiar with using water stones.
Owning a few Shun regular series... this is not a winner for me. If you can find it on sale then buy it because it is SHARP out of the box... but it only has the VG edge, and not the core that the Damascus blade has.
I'll add that this is only a 6 inch knife... so even though it looks like the 8" in proportion, it is a small utility knife.
If you want a true Shun, my fav is still the DM0706. Or if you can afford it the Premier series (Please note that I can't afford it so I will not truly recommend)... but the handle and blade are really attractive.
Some people say they got rust spots on these knives. Well more expensive knives have a good side and a bad side. They are great because you get better blade profiles, with a blade that holds an edge a lot longer and is much easier to sharpen, but the down side is they are prone to rust. You shouldn't just leave these knives laying in a wet sink for days like you can do with cheaper knives. You should do that with any higher end knife because they will all get rust spots. Also I can not stress this enough. Do not put these knives in the dishwasher. When you finish using them. Hand wash them in soap and water. Hand dry them really good and put them back on your knife rack. Also make sure you knife isn't wet from placing wet knives on it. Putting your good knives on a wet knife rack is a good way to get rust spots. These really are great knives that are very easy to take care of with a little respect and a few steps, and these are possibly the best knives in the price range. These or the Messermeister Elites. Though the elites are a little more expensive than these. You will not regret buying these Soras'. Also if you purchase these. Get yourself a nice knife rack to display them. The beautifully crafted knives look way to go to be thrown in a knife block or drawer.
The thing is that Shun knife is pretty overpriced in the US market. Since the Sora version is exclusively for US market, you cannot get a cheaper one same as this knife (There are composite blade knives similar to this from this company at a much lower price. With wooden handles, of course. ). However, for the price you pay, you can actually get the Japanese domestic version of the fancier DM0718 (which currently is about twice as expensive as this knife), plus shipping it to the US. (Of course, to do that, you first have to know that the domestic brand for Shun is Seki Magoroku [' '' in Kanji], then try to buy it using Rakuten [because amazon.co.jp does not ship knives overseas], and wait for one month for delivery, and you won't have warranty for the knife in US. I did not do this because I need a knife to cook now, BUT I mention it to let you know that this knife is much more expensive in US than in its domestic market.) Hence, I have to deduct one star for this kind of price discrimination.
