Chef Knife, Damascus Chef Knife 8 inch, Damascus VG-10 67-Layer Steel Japanese Kitchen Knives, Full Tang Non-stick Blade and Anti-rusting Forged Cooking Knife with Gift Box

Knife came sharp as a razor. Very good quality and amazing design. Very firm on the grip. The grip is not to long or to short is just well balanced. And a amazing chef knife for the daily routine.

I've been a gourmet high end meat cutter/ chef for 43 yrs.These are my new favorites. I love the blade quality. And the handles are perfect. I love the Island colors. Great balance in your hand. I know blades these Arnett impostors. I got 7 from this company and I am super impressed.Buy all of them, be careful there not toys, there dangerously sharp.

Solid knife, not as nice as some of my other Japanese knifes, however very good value and will serve anyone's cooking requirements.

Very good knife. Holds a edge well. Very sharp. Overall a good buy.

I purchases for a client as part of a Christmas gift and he loved the beauty of the handle and the functionality of the knife.

Not a bad price compared to other Japanese style knives nice sharp point for doing fancy cuts

So I ordered the Damascus blade and it showed up with no damascus. The blade was all Crome with some cheesy pattern stamped into it. I gave this as a Christmas present and when they opened it I was so embarrassed about the quality I gave them all the cash in my wallet to apologize for the cheep gift.

The overall design feels off. It looks and feels cheap. It came sharp, and should hold its edge if the listed hardness is accurate. I don't like the balance of the knife. It is very light and thinner. The spine is so thin a typical pinch grip gets a little sore with repititive cutting. It is pretty at least.
