HOSHANHO Carving Kinfe 10 Inch Forged High Carbon Powder Steel Butcher Breaking Knife Razor Sharp Curved Brisket Slicing

When shopping for a kitchen knife, look at the RC hardness.. Anything below 59 imo is too soft and needs sharpening more often. You can shave with this knife. Read more

Knife looks to b a solid super sharp product...Was looking for a carbon steel carving knife to use to carve a rib roast for banquets...Other reviews seemed positive.....so I made the purchase..... Read more

I am genuinely in awe of this carving knife. The moment I unboxed it, the first thing that caught my eye was the gorgeous Damascus-style design on the blade, it looks like something a professional chef would proudly display. The craftsmanship is incredible, and honestly, it feels and looks like a knife worth a thousand dollars. We put it to the test on Thanksgiving this year, and it completely blew us away. The blade is SHARP, truly razor sharp, and it sliced through both the turkey and the ham like absolute butter. No sawing, no hesitation, just clean, smooth cuts every single time. The 15° edge and high-carbon powder steel really make a difference; you can feel how effortlessly it glides through meat. It made carving so easy that it almost felt like the knife was doing the work for us. The handle is also incredibly comfortable. The pakkawood has a great feel in the hand, and the balance is spot on. Even after a long carving session with large cuts of meat, it never felt heavy or awkward. Everything about the design, from the tapered bolster to the ergonomic grip, makes it a pleasure to use. Aside from its performance, it’s simply a beautiful piece. More than one person at the table commented on how striking it looked, and I can’t blame them. Between the elegant blade pattern and the high-end feel, it’s the kind of knife you’re proud to pull out for special occasions. If you love cooking, barbecue, or just appreciate a well-made tool, this carving knife is an absolute standout. It delivers professional-level performance, and it’s truly a gift to remember, for yourself or anyone who loves being in the kitchen. Read more

I like the heft and design of this carving knife. Being a retired engineer, I wanted to dig into the metal of the knife... 5Cr15Mov high-carbon powder steel is a type of stainless steel commonly used for knives, known for its solid corrosion resistance, toughness, and ease of sharpening, though not for exceptional edge retention or wear resistance. It typically contains about 0.5% carbon, 15% chromium, and small amounts of molybdenum and vanadium, which work together to boost rust resistance and overall durability while maintaining decent hardness. The “5” refers to its carbon content (~0.5%), “Cr15” to its chromium content (~15%), and “MoV” to its added molybdenum and vanadium for toughness and better structure. This type of steel is classified as a martensitic stainless steel, which means it is hard and resistant to wear while remaining corrosion-resistant. “High-carbon” means the steel has more carbon than typical stainless steels, making the knife harder and better able to hold an edge, but potentially more brittle if the hardness is very high. A Rockwell Hardness C (HRC) scale of 62 means this has a harder and potentially sharper edge, but also has greater risk of chipping or breakage. Typical 5Cr15Mov knives fall into the 54–59 HRC range, so a hardness of 62 is notably higher than usual—likely due to powder metallurgy or specific heat treatment. At 62 HRC, the knife will hold a sharp edge far longer and cut more cleanly, but it will be more brittle and may chip if misused (for example, cutting through bone or other hard materials). While easy to sharpen, and that is something I do every time before using a knife, this knife is more susceptible to chips or breaking if dropped. And yes, I've had that happen once, I dropped a high hardness knife on the floor and it cleanly broke into two pieces. This knife is actually a good value for the money and if used properly, and take care of, this will be an excellent knife for a long time! (Just don't drop it!) It will resist corrosion, and be a hard sharp knife (remember to sharpen before each use!). Sorry to geek out on you, but it was fun doing a deep dive into the metallurgy of the knife. Overall, I would say this knife is a good deal! 👍 Read more

This is s really great looking and well designed (aesthetically) knife. Almost razor sharp out of the box. Feels like a durable and good steel and materials used. Very large knife makes it a bit hard to hold and handle (but it depends on how youre used to holding a knife). Holding this knife like a sword feels great but if youre used to holding a knife in a pinch grip (like I do) or pointer finger on top of the blade, it may feel a bit awkward due to the size of this knife. But great slicer. I am a bit confused about the curved upwards point (as a slicing tool). But it's ok, still a great knife. I do feel that this knife is of great value. Read more
