Really solid knife for the money!
This is a solid knife that punches above its relatively low price. While its not going to replace my japanese Santoku, its more in line with European style knives ( wustorf, zwillig...) Its afairly heavy knife with a bolster and a chunky handle that I was sure I would hate. Well it is actually comfortable to use. Steel seems similar to other euro knives, not as hard as a couple japanese knives I have. Very nice edge out of the box, been able to hone it on ceramic to maintain edge. Put it on a 1000 grit stone to touch it up, seems easy to re gain the factory edge. Doesn't hold an edge as well as some of my japanese knives but easy to sharpen. Would make a great line knife, where you do not want your expensive knife to get knocked around. Jump on it before they raise the price. Read more
