The only noticeable thing is that they sound different and tang differently if you bang it against another metallic item (they are definitely made of different steel) but short of that they're very similar and I'm not convinced the extra money spent was anything but a novelty.

I think at a certain quality level the real difference is going to be "do you like the handle shape". A 30-50 dollar knife is usually orders of magnitude better than a 50 dollar knife block set. A 100-200 dollar knife is usually only a little better than the 30-50 dollar knife. For me I love the D handle with a pinch grip much much more than I do any of the German knives, so I tend to buy Shun or Shun knockoffs. I have had two man Henckles and higher end Whustoffs and I just haven't been impressed with either compared to more Japanese style knives both in terms of cutting performance and also comfort.
