SHAN ZU 5 Inch Santoku Knife for Small Hands, Japanese High Carbon Steel Kitchen Knife, Multi-function Mini Size Sharp Chef Knives with Ergonomic Red Sandalwood Handle, Sashimi Knives

Good quality and light weight, it is smaller than regular knife, that is why the company specified this knife is for small hands, it is very sharp, and very durable, good for chopping small pieces

Not what I was expecting. I have decent knife skills from cooking in professional kitchens in my youth and have been known to spend hundreds of dollars for knives. I was just looking for a sushi knife to learn with as I teach myself to make western sushi without dropping +$200 on a professional traditional Japanese sushi knife. At first I balked at the price $23.99, but as I read it had a traditional wood handle - my preference - and was made from a decent knife steel. So I pulled the trigger and the knife arrived this afternoon. Was I surprised when I took it out of the box. It is nicely made, sharp, and balanced. It felt good in my hand and sliced through paper like it was not there. Before it arrived, I thought I would replace this knife if I decided to make western sushi regularly after learning, but this is a keeper. Cannot wait to use it!

Great knife. I love the size. It is perfect for chopping vegetables or even slicing meat. It came sharp and maintains an edge really well. It is a very versatile knife that had become one of my favorites.😁👍

This knife isn't anything fancy and doesn't have a special forged/hammered steel blade like my other Japanese knives, but it is a good utility knife for everyday use. Stainless steel blade with good weight and a standard Asian style handle make it feel familiar in my hand. The only negative I had with it was the back of the blade was very squared off, which made it uncomfortable against my index finger. But a couple passes across my bench grinder and this has become a goto in my knife block. The stainless blade stays sharp and doesn't rust or oxidize like my high carbon blades, so it is not as maintenance heavy. Plus, I really like a kuritsuki shaped blade, which this has, but is not a full 9" blade like most kuritsukis so it is more versatile for me.

The design, ergonomics, balance and materials all top notch, highly functional and effective. I can't speak to edge retention or longevity yet but out of the box sharpness is great, the grind not 100% consistent but that's normal for a hand finished knife, it's sharp, cuts great and probably about as perfect as It will ever be since I hand sharpen. For the money these knives are incredible, I honestly wouldn't waste money on the big brands, sure you're guaranteed quality but I like the look and feel of these better than many $200 knives. I wish they had more of a variety of blade styles and different handle color options. Given the g10 scales with torx fasteners I guess you could always replace or customize the grips but these look and feel great as is. PSA- use wood cutting boards, hand wash, hand dry, store in a holder, and don't use pull through sharpeners or metal honing rods and just about any well made knife with a good hard steel and temper will last you a lifetime (with sharpening)

If you are busy in the kitchen you will find much use for this knife. Santoku knives are my go to....they can almost do it all. I have bigger and larger ones. I do have small arthritic hands and this one is my first choice depending on the size of the job.

This is my favorite knife. It is great for cutting vegetables and meat. It is very sharp and has a nice weight to it. I’ve been using it consistently for the last several months and the blade is still very sharp.

This knife is very sharp. The weight of it for its size is perfect and easy to handle. I find myself using this size knife more frequently. I would definitely buy more from this company.

Great knife for filleting fish - very good value for money - knife is as described on the internet - very sharp - thanks
