Not an expert, but this is a wonderful knife

I received this knife about 30 minutes ago and I am still marveling at how nice it is, how wonderful it feels in the hand and how gorgeous it looks. It's also by far the sharpest knife I have ever held, but like the title states I am not an knife expert. I never attach pictures to a review, but wanted to share the balance point of the knife....literally exactly at the bolster (which impresses me although I don't know how difficult this is to achieve.) A picture says it all. It was balanced on my index finger and there were no other fingers supporting the knife. I sliced a carrot to test the blade and the control thru a relatively tough vegetable was like the proverbial "knife thru butter". The blade is light and obviously well balanced, which allowed for perfectly controlled "see thru" carrot slices with minimal effort. The blade angle is fantastic for mincing and although I have neve been great at mincing with other knives I own, this one had me mincing like a pro in absolutely no time. I wouldn't want to put this knife thru heavy duty cutting chores, but for preparing veggies (which I what I do mostly) this is ideal IMHO. I have a Wusthof CLassic coming in a few days. It will be interesting to see the contrast. BTW, did I mention this knife is absolutely beautiful as well? I also like the fact this knife has a real wood handle, unlike the Whuthof. The handle feels wonderful in my hand, although I am wondering how large hands would fit. Highly, highly recommended.PS--After reading some other reviews, there IS a slip of paper with care instructions included with the knife. I plan to wash and dry immediately after use per the instructions. My hunch is it's user error on the people with rust issues and edge issues (the instructions warn about hard squash, so that tells you it's not for heavy duty use), however I will update this review if I feel there is a long term quality issue. My intent is to use on veggie prep, slicing meat & cutting up whole chicken thru the joints (not cutting thru the breastbone or ribs--a cleaver and kitchen shears are the proper tools anyway IMHO).

Outrageously Sharp Kitchen Knife

I have always used Henckels or Wusthof forged kitchen knives and they still have a place in my knife block when I need a forged carbon steel knife that is thick, durable and strong.The Japanese MAC MTH-80 is a different animal. The blade is thin and the knife is light and incredibly razor sharp. This is a great knife to use for cutting up vegetables and soft fruits. It really does carve through these type of items effortlessly. I find myself making lots of stews and soups loaded with all different kinds of veggies because this knife is such a joy to use and it cuts my prep time compared to any other knife.This MAC chef's knife is for adults and it should be off limits to kids and teenagers because if you are not paying close attention to your cutting board you can cut yourself badly with this blade. The blade is thin and it will chip if it comes in contact with bone or anything really hard.The Japanese steel is different from German steel and it does need some special attention. After cutting anything acidic rinse the knife off and do not let the knife sit on the counter after using it for long periods without washing it. The Japanese steel is more prone to rust so just get in the habit of washing the knife with soap and water and drying it with a kitchen towel when you finish your cutting and chopping. This simple steps will insure many years of use from this very fine chef's knife. One final bit of advice; get yourself a ceramic steel to keep the edge smooth and strong. Do not use a regular (butcher) steel as it will damage the edge of this MAC knife.

I'm not a professional chef but I feel like one at home

The media could not be loaded. This was an indulgence for our kitchen, a gift to ourselves to make cooking from home more efficient and pleasurable. Only when you own a GREAT knife do you come to understand how most knives are truly NOT. The 8-inch hollow edge chef's knife turns nearly every task into a "like a knife through butter" joke when we're in prep mode. In no way do I profess to be anything close to a professional grade home cook, and I say as much in my video review (if you can actually hear it), but I feel like one because slices are consistent and paper thin. Even an overripe and rock-hard lime! Chopping up tough veggies, filleting and breaking down a whole salmon to make sushi, trimming the fat from a roast with minimal waste — all are deftly done with so little effort it's almost laughable. What's truly laughable is that it took decades to understand what a quality tool can do for you and the meals you prepare. In fact, I'm still learning that I don't need to apply so much force when slicing, which will be evident in my video review and certainly cause line cooks to shake their heads in disapproval. The secret? Let the tool do the work for you. I literally just finished gliding my way through an entire salmon filet and I find the gentler the hand, the better the results. Don't smash like The Hulk. It takes time to relearn and when you do you'll do a little happy dance. Your proteins won't be mashed, your veggies will be like a uniform box of matchsticks, your trussed tenderloin will look as though it belongs on the cover of Martha Stewart's Living. And it does EVERYTHING. It's a workhorse.Things that are good to know:1) Do NOT assume you can wield this mighty steel like any old blade. I'm PARTICULARLY careful with it comes to slice-and-dicing and managed to gauge a small divot from my thumb upon first use. Until you're used to its razor sharp edge, please invest in cut-resistant gloves. I did. You'll feel and look like a crazy person but all your appendages will remain intact, and that's just a nicety.2a) Hand wash and thoroughly dry ONLY. Repeat: Hand wash, hand dry only. This is not stainless. It can and will spot. No dishwasher ever. Do not leave it in water to soak, either. Unless you like throwing away expensive knives.2b) Whenever working with citrus or tomatoes, wash the knife frequently, quickly. It's a nice piece. Treat it like a princess.2c) When hand washing, do not assume the sponge is some miracle wall of protection. I've sliced up several sponges and almost reached my fingers. I'm sure you see where that could go.3) Change your cutting technique. HUGE. This is going to change your life. Having had a hollow edge Japanese knife before I was accustomed to sawing straight down. This is not that type of knife. Nor is it a classic French or German chef's knife. Experiment and you'll find your way and save an impressive amount of hand fatigue, particularly during marathon holiday cooking.4) Lock that thing up. It doesn't come with a block so invest in a sheath or a wall-mounted magnetic strip. Always, always, always respect the knife. It was laying on my cutting board, sharp edge facing me and I came this close to another cut. Imagine what could happen if you were digging in your drawer and your fingers happened to caress the unshielded ninja.5) LOOOOOOOVE it. You're going to find reasons to cook just for the shear pleasure of it. The first time I used it I marveled at the translucent, glass-like even cuts I was getting. The quality boosts speed. Speed encourages cooking from home. Cooking from home saves money. If you're balking at the price, I'd guess you'll find you save money because it's almost tougher to call for takeout.
