Professional Santoku Knife 8 inch – Best Knife for Chopping, Slicing & Cutting - Very Sharp Carbon Steel Blade and Ergonomic Riveted Non Slip Micarta Handle - Stylish Gift Box

super sharp out of the box had it for 3 yrs. I think, I hit it on my smooth metal still every now and then and have yet to sharpen it if that tells you anything! great knife!!!!

After I ordered the knife they contacted me with info how to reach them if I had any questions etc...nice....also included with the knife there is a chefs hat, which my grandson enjoys to wear when helping in the kitchen....AND....we all love the knife!!!!

While the handle looks attractive in the photos, the unit I received wasn't. The blade is too heavy, the handle looks cheap in-person, and the rivets extend beyond the handle instead of being ground flush. The handle itself doesn't fit perfectly with the tang of the blade (gaps all along the steel). It's probably fine for someone who doesn't want a great knife, but you'll need to have it professionally sharpened before you use it.

My brother loved it and still does!

Good for the price

WOW

This knife had a remarkable100% 5-star reviews on Amazon, and I thought I should check it out. The blade is not quite straight and it should be thinner for my use. I have no information on the metallurgy. It is shiny and beautifully sharpened. It seems like a hybrid design. The handle is more Japanese than German. I do not need another heavyweight Chef's knife and I will probably return it.

Great knife! We didn’t realize how full our other knives were until this beauty showed up. We thought some of the food was rotten because of how easily it cut through it.
