Do the knives chip easily? How long have you had them?

Hello, sorry for the inattention. The knives arrived well within the time limit laid down. Are great, wonderful and I recommend the product. I'm with them almost two months and whenever I prepare the food, use them. Best regards, Luis Antonio Olimpio dos Santos.

This specific shun knife collection is very easily chipped. I have been owned and taking care of this so well, but still chipped. Not sure why. However, it maintains sharpness very well and has great balance and feel so good in my hands. One of my favorite knife. After this, I cannot use any other German knives. Just wish it's not too chipped easily.

Been had them for 6momths but never dropped it so not sure but it is thin steel so i believe it is easy to chip. But still good knife

I sold them. They are excellent quality though. I only sold them because of a lack of heft.

I bought this set for my partner. She has had them for about a year and they have no chips. We hand wash and keep them stored on magnetic strip attached to wall so no drawer storage. They are extremely sharp though and she has cut herself many times but would definitely recommend them if you don't mind taking care of them like you should. ~Candice

They are the same as any other knives except for the non slip/stick coating so yes! One problem I can see happening is them dulling a bit quicker then using a standard cutting board.

This is a very robust all purpose knife. I have yet to damage it and it is practically the only knife I use. It won't chip; at least I haven't been able to make it do so.

Good grief! I have had a set of steak knives and a countertop set of kitchen knives for more than 30 years and have never had any rusting issues. I will point out that I do NOT put them in the dishwasher (wooden handles) and that when I hand wash them, I always dry them thoroughly before storing them.

No, mine are still sharp and in good condition. I am happy with my purchase.

So far I've had min for a few months, and I have used them a lot. Still nice and sharp, haven't had the need to sharpen it.

They are fairly sharp. I find that I have to sharpen my paring knives rather frequently, but I abuse the heck out of them.

I've had one of these knives for about a year without it chipping off. They are made really well. I did attempt to use one of them to chip through some frozen solid spinach one time and the coating did slightly chip. I don't know what it's made of but they work and don't rust

They are really sharp to start out with and they last a pretty long while. I'm not sure if they can be sharpened, although if they can't be sharpened I'm sure anyone could just replace the blades on then with new ones. I love these knives. Hope that helped in some way or another.

Not sure, but I'm supposing no. I've had my knives for a long time and I use them more than any of my Cutco knives. Take care of these and I'm sure they'll last forever.

They last a very long time. Sharpening your knife before every use takes only a moment. I have never seen a sharpening steel wear out.

I'm not really sure. I've had mine for about 8 months and they're still sharp. But i am going out on a limb and saying yes. But not a auto sharpener. I'd use a stone

Not to my knowledge. However, after a year of use, mine have not chipped, and ate still very sharp. I don't cook daily, though.

These dishes are not chip resistant. In fact they chip quite easily. We have stopped using them as they were a danger at times

I haven't had any issues, but I use soft wood targets like pine slabs (trunk sections) Harder woods and indirect hits will eventually cause breakage. These are good but not top of the line knives, they are not indestructible.

That depends on how long you leave them in water. If you're like my husband and dump them in a sink full of water and don't wash them or remove them, then yes. When I got back from my 2 day trip, the knife had a couple of rust spots. My advice would be to not let them soak in water for very long. But as far as using them in a dishwasher, not had a problem so far. I hope that helps.

I use sharp knives on them all of the time. It scratches them, but they (I have four) have held up for at least four years.
