This knife is so consistent and one of the most satisfying cutting experiences I've had. I would recommend getting a whetstone as I think that's the best way to sharpen japanese chef knives. This knife is truly phenomenal and makes the cooking experience just that much better. I find the size of the knife to be perfect, not too long to be unwieldy and not too tiny to make cutting some vegetable and greens more difficult. This knife is a workhorse and one of my go to general knives for anything. I love it, If I need another knife this knife is insane value for the quality.

Best value knife on the market
After buying a few "VG10" knives off of Amazon that turned out to basically be AliExpress knives, I wanted to try a real Japanese VG10 steel knife from a trusted knife maker. After parsing through dozens of forums, YouTube videos, etc., I settled on this knife as it seemed like it offered the most value for the money. I've used this knife almost daily for the past few weeks and can confidently say that a step above the other, cheaper knives that I've tried. The knife I received was in new condition and came in a nice gift box. It was relatively sharp, but after a few passes on a whetstone it was like a laser, slicing through meat and vegetables with ease. More importantly, it has retained its sharpness even after a few weeks of relatively hard use. Not sure how to verify that it's made out of VG10 but it has noticeably better edge retention than any other knife I've tried and shows no signs of rust. Buy with confidence. For ~$100, this is the best Japanese knife on the market.

An excellent knife

Incredible knife compared to scrap metal things sold in india.
A wonderful knife. Over priced but there is little you can do due to import, customs, sellers profit margins. It is a razor sharp knife. You should have atleast 6000 grit stone to maintain the factory sharpness level. Kingkw 65 or king kds are good choices.shameerIncredible knife compared to scrap metal things sold in india.
