I’m a very seasoned chef and this knife for the price is absolutely fabulous. Sharp AF. Definitely recommend it. In fact I’m going to stick to Kitory and purchase a bunch more.

After only a few uses the knife broke while cutting lettuce. Very dangerous!

Fantastic knife, I used it for steak and I just had to barely press it against the meat to perfectly slice it.It's awesome, comes in a nice box, properly wrapped and protected.Super sharp, light and easy to handle, it helped me make a perfectly looking tagliata without damaging or tearing apart the meat.Perfect, neat cut.It is so light that I also used it as a table knife for me to cut the meat while eating is (as opposed to just using it to slice the meat before serving it). It doesn't feel like a kitchen knife.Extremely recommended!

The media could not be loaded. It has a good edge to it but I have a couple of other similar knives that are sharper...one of them significantly sharper but at a higher price than this. With that being said...This is a really good knife. Better than many. The edge is sharp enough to fairly easily cut through onion or tomato skin(a true test for me). And, as a one time professional cook, I feel the knife seems to have good balance and rocks well on the cutting board.This knife blade has cool-looking etching on both sides - better on one side than the other. I like the look of the handle but would like it to be more substantial - thicker all the way around where I'd feel like I have a little more control and a good grip.Recommended. Hope this helps.
