- Reviewed in the United States on April 30, 2025Color: Black/GraySize: 6"Style: Chef Knife 6 InchVerified PurchaseThis is the best knife I’ve ever owned! I wish I had this years ago! It’s so sharp, easy to handle and is the perfect size! It cuts right through vegetables! It’s so sharp that it cut the top of my finger while barely laying again it and it comes with a sharpener that is so easy to use. I highly recommend this chef’s knife! I previously purchased an 8” which is too large for cutting veggies, but it will be great for cutting up meat.

- Reviewed in the United States on February 18, 2025Color: Black/GraySize: 5"Style: Santoku 5 InchVerified PurchaseReplacing the one I bought at a store 8 years ago. Blade is a little thicker and shaped a little different but works mostly the same. My go to knife for chopping/cutting everything from cheese, lettuce, garlic and in a pinch can sorta slice tomatoes. My old one was Farberware so I figured another one should last another 8 years, but this one comes with the sheath that has a sharpener, rarely ever had to sharpen the old one but it is nice to have a sheath.

- Reviewed in the United States on March 27, 2025Color: Black/GraySize: 8"Style: Chef Knife 8 InchVerified PurchaseIf you haven't been using a sharp knife be cautious with this because it is exceptionally sharp. It makes short work of vegetables and finger tips.
I experimented using the sharpening sleeve on my older farberware steak knives. A couple of passes smoothed the blades and put a nice edge on them.

5.0 out of 5 stars It's very different from the knives we have and i really love how it's easy to cut meat
Color: BlackSize: 6"Style: Chef Knife 6 InchVerified PurchaseJust finished cutting meat after the knife was delivered 😁. It's very different from the knives we have and i really love how it's easy to cut meat. I'm sure there are better knives out there. However, for someone who have only used local made knives, it's a very different experience.
