I've bought several other knives on amazon, only to be disappointed at the thin steel that eventually chips or breaks. Not this knife... it's a solid "heirloom" quality knife that can be sharpened over and over again. It does what it's supposed to do, has a great heavy weight...and I can't imagine any improvement over its function or durability. I just ordered another so I can have two in the kitchen.

So glad I ordered this knife. It is amazing. Came packaged so nice in a box that you could store the knife in if you did not want to leave it out.

Purchased this knife as I was tired of using the 'house' knives in my kitchen. For the $25 i paid it is a surprisingly great feeling tool, although a bit on the heavy side if that bothers you. In hindsight had I paid more attention to the design of the knife instead of being wooed by the price and my haste to get something decent i would have passed. The knife is decently balanced, although likely a bit back heavy for some, the added weight makes long chopping tasks a breeze and the handle is pretty comfortable in a pinch or full palm grip. The steel isn't extremely hard and as so wont hold its edge for me for much more than a days hard work (the factory edge while pretty sharp actually got minor chipping after the first day of use). The upside to this is its very quick to get a razor edge on even a mediocre stone, and with intermittent honing can be maintained for quite a while. The major problem with this knife is the bolster that runs the full length of the blade, stopping the heel of the cutting edge from contacting the cutting board (preventing cutting, and pretty badly gouging the board) within only a handful of sharpenings. On a final note, the 'finger guard' that comes with this knife is completely useless, learn proper knife handling with out a crutch for your own sake. I would have rather had a slightly more sculpted bolster than this unnecessary waste of steel that only serves to encourage lackadaisical technique, and scratch the hell out of your knife.

We have been using this knife since Christmas, and we are so happy with it. We bought a small Cangshan set for my MIL, and honestly this knife feels and cuts just as well as their more expensive Chef knife. The quality feels amazing, the handle feels so solid (and it’s gorgeous), and it cuts so much cleaner and easier than the basic knifes we got as a wedding gift many years ago. No, this isn’t meant to compete with those Damascus style German carbon steel $$$ knives, but it’s an amazing value for the price. If you need a good quality chef knife for under $30, this is absolutely the knife for you. The quality is just excellent. It definitely surprised my husband and I! We love it.Also- it does not come with a protective sheath, so we bought a bamboo drawer knife “block” to store it in with our other knives. We store our knives in a drawer instead of a counter knife block.

I don't know anything about knives, other than what a Cutco salesperson told me (to sell me their knives). The cutcos were great, but I lost them in a divorce, and somehow wound up with the cheapest worst knives imaginable. I mean they will cut steak if you really work at it, but they just do not work for chopping vegetables or anything. I finally decided I needed something to chop veggies and just be an all around versatile knife to have in the kitchen. I'm not a chef and I only begrudgingly cook, so I didn't want to spend a fortune.I got this one because of the other positive reviews and I have to say they were right. I actually have to be really careful with this knife because it is so sharp. I won't even let my kids touch it (they are in middle school) when they are cooking because I'm that scared of how sharp it is lol. Respect this knife. It is really big too. I've been able to chop everything up with ease and am very happy with this purchase!
