Kai Hocho Premium Santoku Kitchen/Vegetable Knife, 6.77 Inch Blade, Black, Carbon_Steel

Fantastic balance. It is a joy to handle this knife. It has an extremely sharp edge. You do not have to press. It passes through vegetables like butter! Its blade has the same thickness as a chef's knife (1.5 mm), but since the entire blade is wedge-shaped (tapered), it feels thinner. This is NOT a problem: In fact, such "full flat grinding is provided in many high-end Japanese Santoku knives! That said, the sharp edge is delicate. Use only wood/plastic chopping boards, and do NOT chop on stone/glass/steel chopping boards (or directly on the kitchen platform). Also, you must maintain its sharp edge regularly by honing it on a whetstone (easily available on Amazon). Do NOT use hand-held sharpeners! The only problem is that the cut food sticks to the sides of the blade because there is no sharp angle at the edge. (If the knife has a sharp V-shaped edge, the food falls off the blade. Santoku knives have dimples to prevent such sticking (which are ineffective anyway), but this one does not have dimples. The handle is sturdy with three rivets, and perfectly finished. The handle has a taper in front to allow the classic chef's pinch grip. This grip allows perfect control over your cutting and dicing. See photos for these details. Highly recommended!

It's very sharp and of premium quality great for cutting jackfruit. Value for money

Kai Santoku knife is best for daily household kitchen work, its made of high grade stainless steel. Knife is well balanced and pretty sharp, handle is made up of polypropylene (plastic) which is comfortable to grip. Got in the best price of 390 with cashback. I have used several other brands in this price range, but Kai knife outshine everyone, it holds edge for long compared to those. Easy to sharp on wheatstone of 1000 grit. Overall a good choice you can go for it.

Yes , product from this company is very good and nice to use daily in the kitchen . Very light and sharp

Pretty big upgrade! If you are used to with the common roadside knives, then this would be a very good step up. the quality of the steel is perfect at the price point, perhaps better than the local shops. Note, you will need to have whetstone, or a good quality knife sharpener made for carbon steel to sharpen it. it comes fairly sharpened but with all good knives, after some time it will definitely need some. shape is very comfortable for daily use and even heavy (meat cutting) usage.

Light weight and sharp for vegetable cutting of kai hocho premium santoku knife you can buy it in valuable price overall knife is good 👍

Not as sharp as I expected. I was hoping it would have the same sharpness as the knife I used in Japan, but this one feels to be only about 50% as sharp. While it is usable, it does not deliver the level of cutting performance I was expecting.

Excellent. Sharp and good

حجمه كبير جدا للحوم وليس للخضار والفواكة ومخيف لانه حاد جداااااا—لابد من الحذر عند الاستخدام
