Review: Have bought three, first one sharp and the other two blunt. - I have bought three of these knives now, the very first one we got was perfect out of the box and almost two years later still quite sharp. Decided to buy another two (one as a gift) and both have been a disappointment and came out blunt out of the box. Did not live up to first one we bought.
Review: Fantastic knife - I have owned this knife for close to two years, and it's as good a knife as I've ever owned, beautifully weighted and easy to keep sharp. Buyers beware that when it's fresh out of the box, it is like a razor, and will cut everything, including yourself, with barely a touch. I learned this the hard way. Seems there might be such a thing as too sharp?! I don't keep that kind of edge on it, for fear of losing fingers, but after some use, it was perfect for me.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: What makes AUS‑10 steel different?**
A: AUS‑10 has more carbon (about 2.5×) than most high‑end steels, so the blade stays sharper for a much longer time.

**Q: Is this knife dishwasher safe?**
A: No. Like almost all high‑quality knives, it should be hand‑washed and dried immediately after use.

**Q: Does it work for left‑handed users?**
A: Yes. The knife features a 50/50 symmetric grind at 15° per side, making it comfortable for both right- and left‑handed cooks.

**Q: How often do I need to sharpen it?**
A: Thanks to the high‑carbon AUS‑10 steel and Rockwell hardness of 58, the edge stays sharp longer than many other steels. Touch it up occasionally with a honing rod; professional sharpening is only needed a few times per year, depending on usage.

**Q: What’s the sloped bolster for?**
A: It encourages the correct pinch grip and keeps your fingers away from the heel of the blade, making it both comfortable and safer to use.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great professional knife at a reasonable price point!
*by M***Y on 8 October 2022*

Knife is very well balanced and very ergonomic. Blade came well sharpened and is fantastic to use. Purchased the knife after combing through many reviews saying it was one of the best economical all around professional knives on the market. Also purchased a whetstone but under normal use should not expect to sharpen the blade more than once to twice a year.
