New object of lust

Shun + Alton Brown knife set. It is created in a similar process to Damascene & Samurai blades, sandwiching layers of Cro-Moly-Vanadium steel and high carbon steel to create both a strong and flexible blade that keeps a very sharp edge.

Instead of buying the set, I'd probably just start with one, and add on later. The coolest looking one, and probably the most useful would be the Ken Onion Chef's Knife.
