GINSUGourmet Chikara Series Forged 420J Japanese Stainless Steel Paring Knife, 07148DS, Black, 3.5 inch

I just love this paring knife for slicing veggies and especially tomatoes so thin and lovely to dress up sandwiches and salads.

I purchased two pairing knifes, and what a surprise, cuts through steak, like butter. I feel like throwing all my knifes away, and buy a new set of these knifes, nice handle easy to hold and blade is sharp. Great price and valve!

This is great quality. The only thing that I'm not happy about is that it seems to have dulled quickly. I don't use on anything other than meat or vegetables and I don't put in the dishwasher and I only use the other side to scrape things off the cutting mat. Otherwise I'm very happy with the knife.

I tried this knife on a lemon that the skin was a little tough from too many days in a basket. Just the weight to the knife went right through the skin and the entire lemon like butter. Little early to review. Anxious to see how long it stays sharp. Had a similar knife that got stuck in a water melon. That is when i started researching and this has great reviews and it lived up to them so far. Price is not cheap but affordable. I would recommend this knife. Sharp knives are safer than dull knives they say. and after wrestling a dull knife out of a watermelon, I can say I was extremely careful but could see that the potential of getting sliced or even stabbed. Every wiggle wiggle wiggle to free it, i’m thinking NEW KNIFE! And this was a very good choice. I also ordered the same line bread knife. Anxious to get a Loaf of sour dough. Im tired of shattering the crust and squishing the loaf with my death grip while I shred it up with my dull knife. Like anything else, you're only as good as your equipment.

light weight, yet strong and sharp enough.

This was a Christmas gift for my mom. She didn’t think this brand still existed. I don’t think she has used it yet, but she was super excited that I found her one! Her only “negative“ comment was the size of the handle, compared to the size of the blade. But she was happy!

I've wanted one of these Chinese cleavers for quite awhile. I finally treated myself and got this one. I've had Ginsu Chikara series knives since 2014. I loved them from the start. So it was natural to stay in the family. The Chikara cleaver (like all the others), while feeling substantial, is actually light for its size. Put that to good materials and excellent balance in the hand. My hand has never felt tired or crampy after using the cleaver, no matter the task. It does come sharp as hell, holds that edge, & resharpens well when needed. But since the most dangerous tool in a kitchen is a dull knife, this Ginsu Chikara cleaver is very safe.

Although this is presented as a Japanese knife. It is only japanese in style. The knife is actually made in China. Quality and use is not that of a real Japanese knife. Whatever you are cutting with this knife just sticks to it due to no actual depressions along the blade itself for airflow. just saying.

Faca boa

It arrived early. …The knife is very sharp and I have a great quality.!!!

This knife was recommended in a foodie article I was reading. I took a chance and I'm very happy I did. This is now my primary kitchen knife. Great hand feel too.

Muito boa para cortar vegetais, filé de frango e carnes sem osso. É equiparada a um cutelo chinês porém menor. A lâmina é grossa e parece resistente e durável.

Tiene un filo excelente! Me encantaría que trajera un protector para guardarlo.
