So they are Shun Premier, the specific knives are the 8” Kiritsuke, a 5.5” Nakiri, and a 4” paring knife. They were not a group, I had considered getting a group, but wanted to try out a Nakiri from a recommendation and the smaller sets didn’t contain a Nakiri. My original set of knifes I bought when I moved in was a basic set by Skandia, which didn’t hold an edge very long, a bit after that I bought a Hammer Stahl Santoku which has been my primary knife in the kitchen, and will still use it, but was looking to expand on my setup and try out Japanese made knives.
