Traditional Japanese Professional Gyuto Kitchen Chef Knife - Premium 20cm High Carbon Stainless Steel Gyuto Sushi Knife with High Corrosion Resistance in a Single Bevel Chisel Edge Grind

from start to finish this knife has been amazing, from the moment i got the knife, the packaging is beautiful and the knife is just amazing to look at, now i took it to work with me, being that i work at a fish market what better place o test a knife like this, so i put it through a trail by fire, cutting monk fish, staking whole cat fish, filleting 6 pound whole snapper, cutting through yellow fin tuna skin, and slicing through sword fish, i did everything i could possible think of, even as far as cutting up boxers to even try to dull this knife, and at the end of the day, i had cut three of my fingers, not from carelessness or playing around, but just by putting any kind of force behind this knife is enough to get a cut on it. so, after all that, and closely inspecting the knife, still razor sharp, no dents or knocks in the blade, nothing, and i didn't do anything to it, it came out of the box ready to do all that and more, so if you're looking for a 150$ knife, stop. this knife is just as good, for much cheaper of a price, with a full tang, right handed blade, and a blade sharp enough to cut through the fabric of space and time this is the only knife anyone will ever need.

Gran producto, precio calidad 100% recomendado

Out of the box it is sharp — very sharp. I’ve only have had one knife out of the box that may have been marginally sharper but I wouldn’t swear to that. It goes through paper smoothly from heel to point. The quality of the knife is very good as well. Fit and finish leave nothing to be desired. Chinese knifes are as good or as bad as the contracting company wants them to be. This company wanted a good quality product at an affordable price. They hit a home run in each category. Being that this is my first knife of a single bevel I wasn’t certain that I would like the traditional Japanese style handle. I have big hands and the shape of the handle is comfortable for me. I particularly like the finish on the wood. It is not slick and it stays in the hand where you want it to stay. The first thing that I prepared was a cob salad with all the usual ingredients. Prepping the veggies was a snap, noting that the single bevel gives a precise cut. Would I recommend this knife to a friend? Absolutely. Would I gift this knife? Yes and without hesitation.

Advertised as single bevel, it actually has a small secondary bevel that I don’t like. Even so, it is so much better than my American knives that it is my go to knife for most things. It was quite sharp when it arrived and sliced things quite thin when needed. There’s a bit of a learning curve with it. I plan on removing the secondary bevel. The blade seems to be made of a good quality rust free steel. It is well made and looks good.

This is my lending chef knife. When people need or want to help me, I give them this knife. It's good, durable, and gets the job done for the price. Inexperienced chefs have banged it up and cut several things with it. The only drawback is that I have to sharpen the knight before every event, but for the price. It's worth it, and what it had to endure is like good Toyota. I got my first one three years ago, and it's still running strong. I got a second one this last year. It's my go-to purchase due to its reliability.
