My grandson is going to culinary school and he loves this knife. We got his name engraved on it and he absolutely loves it! Highly recommended.
Great size, easy to clean and keep sharp. Make sure to hone before every use for best results.
Well worth the money for a personal heirloom
I cook a LOT and I wanted to update my knives, I did some research and decided to buy one of these beauties and I am so happy I did! It's amazingly sharp, feels good in my hand and I am going to switch all my knives out now.
The knife is well balanced and fits in my holder well
I absolutely love this knife - it is my daily chef's knife. I used to use an 8" but was constantly running into things on the counter, into the side of the sink while washing, into my hands, and so on. Then I found this 5" chef's knife...not only is the shorter length just perfect (and not too short, which I was a bit afraid of), but the weight is night and day from what I had! Wow!! This knife is so lightweight! I figured out why my wrist was hurting all the time :/ I absolutely LOVE this knife - I told my husband he'd have to pry it from my cold, dead hands to get it from me! lol Would recommend this to anyone! When the husband can sneak this away to use it, he prefers it, as well.
I bought this knife for my 12 year old so I could teach him how to cook. I have a full set of Wusthof knives, from my days as a professional in the cooking industry and I could never buy anything else. This knife is a great size for his little hands and the blade is good and solid. My only issue is that the handle isn't the same as my other set. My other knives have a solid handle to blade set up, while this knife is more of the blade set into a plastic handle. I think it is great for my 12 year old, but I wouldn't recommend it for heavy duty use, as that set up doesn't have the long term quality you want for a 20 year knife.
great value well worth the money. my wife is the cook of the famliy and she uses this knife for just about any application in the kitchen. there is no pull whatsoever when slicing through it tomato or soft bread. at least once a week shell tell me how amazing this knife is in comparison to the (now retired) knife that used to be in her regular rotation. at 6 inches its not too big nor too small ...just be careful washing it it's super sharp.
The quality of the knife is impressive - and it is great to be able to personalize something like this as a gift. Do yourself a favor and give this to someone you really want to impress - they'll love it and you!
