Very good knife.

I received this knife as a gift from my family, I have only used it a few times now, but every time I have used it I am pleasantly surprised by it's sharpness and how well it fits in my hand as I cut along. This isn't a lengthy review but I do enjoy it greatly.

Beautiful and sharp

Great knife. Came very sharp out of the package. Steel is very hard, you can hear a resonating "shing" sound when you wipe the blade. Damascus pattern is beautiful.

Great quality and look

Such great quality! We love how they have a little bit of weight to them but aren’t super heavy. Great for displaying as well

LOVE this knife!

LOVE this knife. The handle feels so perfect and the blade slices right through steak and makes quick work of veggies. Since it arrived, I haven't used any of my other chef's knives.
