Q: How difficult is it to sharpen this knife, once it eventually needs to be sharpened?

no more difficult than any serrated knife, you need a round, ceramic sharpener and a round steel, there are videos on it if you are unsure of how to do it, you DO NOT sharpen it in a traditional method using either a stone or electric sharpener, you will ruin it. If you tell me what you plan on using this knife for I can recommend if you do or don't get it.

Q: Is this knife made with full tang construction?

Unlikely, partial tang if I had to guess. Regardless, perfectly balanced and very sturdy. This knife is made for slicing tomatoes, it’s not a bayonet. I wouldn’t worry about the tang construction.

Q: Looking at a shun knife as christmas gift for my wife. can anyone compare the vb0741 (plastic handle) vs. dm0741?

Sorry, Jeff, but all I can tell you for sure is that this Shun knife is an excellent sandwich knife. My qualifications: was a professional gourmet sandwich "builder" and am known to friends and family as "the best" sandwich maker they know. I take that last compliment with a grain of salt, sea or kosher, of course. The only ding against this knife is that it is not made of "springy" steel--it will stay bent in any given forced angle. A fillet knife, in contrast, will not stay bent. I've had/been using this knife for years and the handle, non-plastic, is very comfortable--I am right handed--and shows less wear than the blade. I've never put this knife in a dishwasher and never will. Hope this helps.

Q: Is this knife dishwasher proof?

Shun knives are hand wash only. The chemicals and heat used in dishwashers are too abrasive and they will damage the knife.
