Amazing knife

Beautiful knife. Recommended by a close friend in the industry, with the quote “work horse of a knife. Used 8-10 a day for multiple years. Held a perfect edge and balanced beautifully. If you’re on the fence about purchasing. Jump off the fence and order.

Unbeatable!

Unbelievable quality and craftsmanship! The sharp edge is unbeatable and cuts through tougher items such as ginger or root veggies with ease I didn’t know was possible. The handle is solid and ergonomic, the rocking edge allows for nimble knife work and it’s an absolutely gorgeous addition to our kitchen.
