Pros: sharper than any knife i have

Cons: need to get acustomed to the handle

I have this knife for just under a year and it is one of the sharpest knives that i have.  compared to a miyabi fusion designed by morimoto and his team,  i felt that this knife felt sharper, and went through meats and vegetables smoother.  The angled handle required some getting used to, but i was very nice.  I want to baby this knife since it was expensive, and i worry that the edge will become dull, but it has retained it's edge surprisingly well.

Description:

Shun Classic Alton's Angled 8-inch Chef's knife. The unique 10 degree handle angle is the result of the collaboration between Shun and star of the Food Network's Good Eats show, celebrity chef Alton Brown. Not only does the design keep knuckles off the cutting board, but the natural curve created between the blade and the user's arm also make controlling the blade even easier and more precise. This 10 degree angled is the only difference. Otherwise these are Shun Classic kitchen knives. Same clad VG-10 steel blade, same "D" shaped handle, same razor-sharp edge and precise handling. It's just a brillian new angle on some already brilliant knives.
