Review: Excellent knife that looks incredible. Higher quality than anticipated! - Excellent, sharp, beautiful, and ergonomically sound knife. I gave this as a gift for christmas and the recipient is in love with it. It performs so well and is extremely sharp. It cuts like butter and the grip feels great in the hand. Fantastic knife for the price. Highly recommend.
Review: A great knife! - The Nakiri knife is an excellent, capable knife at this price point. I use it mainly for cutting vegetables, so I use it as more of a specialist knife, and in this area it excels. With it's "flat-ish" (almost straight) belly, forward slice chopping through ingredients are a breeze and mincing garlic can be done quickly with ease. I LOVE its aesthetics, although I've heard that the Tsuchime finish doesn't always prevent food from sticking to it, I still think it works better than knives without the finish. It also looks great if displaying it on a magnetic knife holder. I appreciate the stainless content of the blade which makes maintenance a lot easier. Although the 9cr mov steel is not as high-end as other knife steels, it really is the heat treatment and blade and edge geometry that count for me. It will shred magazine paper all day, but maybe not hold an edge for as long as the higher-end steels. I always hone with a ceramic stone and leather strop often anyway, and I'm not a professional chef who has to prepare ingredients for hundreds of meals on a daily basis. On an emotional note, I think its a functional work of art that also makes food preparation easier and fun and gets me excited every time I use it.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Are these knifes made in Japan or China?**
A: I could not tell where the knife was made.  It bears no country of origin.  In the description information it refers to Japanese and under Country of Origin it also says Japan.  How do you know where these knives are made; please tell me. Thank you very much. Mk

**Q: Dose this come with warranty if it breaks?**
A: This knife is made of Damascus steel.  unless you severely abuse it, like using it for a tire iron, It is not going to break.  These people seem to be very big on customer satisfaction and if you did manage to break it I am sure they would replace it, I am sure.

**Q: Why does this Santoku not have the divots? Do veggies stick to the knife when slicing?**
A: From here it looks like it does, unless you got the polished one, they will most likely have the stamp marks... the blackness kinda hides them, but no, I haven't had problems with anything sticking .

**Q: Is the blade full tang? Specifically does it extend through the handle?**
A: It’s not a full tang, it’s a hidden tang. It runs the length of the handle, yes, but full tangs are the entire width of the handle
