Review: Go ahead and "cut" to the chase. This is a keeper. - I am a knife nut. This piece is very well made. The handle fits in my small to medium hand as if it were born there. Balance? Oh yes! This knife has great balance. Its blade is chef-sharp and solid. I have successfully sliced raw beef, turkey breast, chicken, and pork for jerky; as well as fine veggie prep for sushi. What a pleasure to work with. Cleaning is easy, but please, do show it the respect it deserves by never putting it in a dishwasher. In fact, no bladed kitchen tool should ever go in the dishwasher, including a vegetable peeler. I carefully wash the knife in soapy water and dry it with a soft absorbent cloth. It is then stored with on my knife magnet alongside of its "siblings" where it will stand at attention until summoned for the next culinary assignment. I purchased this knife at a slight discount, yet after working with it multiple times, I would not bat an eye over its regular price. Great value for the money!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent and more than worth the price
*by M***N on February 8, 2026*

Excellent knife -- and I have had French Chef knives for more than 50 years and this one is top end for handling and especially for sharpness. The 13 degree knife edge is incredibly sharp and goes through onions without crushing the juice out, so no crying. Also slices tomatoes so thin you can see through them! Easy clean up and unlike my old carbon steel knives, which are also razor sharp, this one doesn't appear to be troubled by cutting high acid foods. The "pinch grip" is my long-standing way to use these knives because it gives you excellent blade control and the handle and blade design work great for that. All in all, especially for the price, these are great knives to anyone who regularly uses a French chef knife. Only word of caution -- they really, really are sharp, so sharp if you use the blade to lift veggies off the cutting board, you have to be careful not to cut the board!
