MITSUMOTO SAKARI 4 Piece Japanese Chef Knife Set, Professional Hand Forged Kitchen Chef Knife Set, Ultra Sharp Kitchen Chef Knife Set with High Count

Ces couteaux sont bien balancés, ils sont un peu lourd ce qui est très appréciable. Ils tiennent bien en main, ne sont pas glissant même lorsque j'ai les mains mouillées. Leurs tranchant est extra, ils coupent comme une lame de rasoir. Ne pas mettre dans les mains d'inexpérimentés. pour me rien gâcher, ils sont très jolis et ils viennent dans une belle boîte en bois pratique. Je les recommandent fortement.

Excelente calidad

This is the second set of these knives I have bought (as a house warming gift for my son) after having purchased all of the knives individually. These knives are incredibly sharp and hold their sharpness well. Although I have purchased a proper sharpening stone I have never used it ; 3-4 runs along a good knife steel has been all that is needed to bring these back to full sharpness. These knives are also well balanced and comfortable to hold and use.

This is the first time that I decided to splurge on kitchen knives. As somebody who used to purchase individual knives because they were on sale or as needed, I immediately noticed a difference. Anyone who complains about Rust is just not taking care of their knives appropriately. The box comes with knife oil so that you can take care of the blades that you don’t use regularly for long-term storage. However, if you are somebody who uses your knives regularly and keep them clean, these are going to last you quite a while. The spines are very thick and the blades themselves have been crafted beautifully. I’m quite proud to show them off when I’m cooking. I purchased this when it was on sale for around $150 so about $50 a knife with a free pairing knife thrown in. So the cost is fair. I will say that the handles could be better as they don’t feel like real wood? This for me is a non issue as the primary reason I purchased a Japanese style knife is so that I could replace the handles instead of having to go and buy a new blade. The box itself is nice for presentation, but I don’t see myself using it for long-term storage. It’s honestly a little cheap feeling. But hey, it’s just a box. The knives are also quite well balanced just past the heel of the blade.

These are like Mini Samurai swords: one side left raw and the other side is razor sharp. Excellent cooking. Excellent in the kitchen. Excellent for cooking. Watch out for your fingers
