Review: Knife to know you - Excellent knife I use as my chef knife. It remains as sharp as the day I received it. I found keeping a good edge on it was a little more challenging than other knives but well worth it. I have the chef’s knife also but prefer this one. (It’s a little small but manageable for the job) I have used it now for two years. My go to knife. If it breaks I would buy another one. I cook every day.
Review: Buen cuchillo - El mango es sencillo pero se ve muy bien hecho, se siente bien en la mano, súper filoso, me hubiera gustado que le integraran un cubre filo o funda. Definitivamente compraría otro de esta marca.
