Review: I want to write poetry about this knife - I'm someone who learned to cook later in life (at age 30) and have gradually been converting my kitchen into high functionality rather than a wasteland of single purpose utensils. I went with a Wusthof classic full set that I added a Santoku to and those have served me beautifully for a number of years. With a bonus, I decided to splurge on a real Japanese knife and this met all my specifications. Y'all... this knife is really wonderful. It is intensely sharp, very ergonomic, not as heavy as the Wusthofs while being really sturdy at all manner of tasks. I don't even need to partially freeze beef when I make jerky because this is so precise and sharp that it can cut to the right thickness without help. It can ALSO cut reasonably well through things that *are* partially frozen. You don't need this knife to be a great chef, but you will love it.
Review: Beautiful knife and very sharp - I received this beautiful Japanese made knife with prompt delivery. It is gorgeous and like a piece of art. I am in the midst of converting all my old well used American knives I've had for 20+ years over to Japanese Damascus made knives which are SG2 or VG-10 hand forged steel. I extensively research everything I purchase and review customer reviews before I make a purchase. I am very happy with this purchase. Another Japanese knife I purchased, a Sujihiki 270mm from another vender uses Shiragami #2 White Japanese steel which carries an even sharper blade but requires more frequent sharpening. As with all Japanese forged knives, they require Wetstones to keep them sharp.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Amazing knife!
*by J***R on January 11, 2024*

This is an amazing, sharp and light knife. I own about a dozen Shun and two Global knives and this one is my favorite by far. I now plan on buying the slicing knife to match.
