The symmetric cutting edge is great for both right and left handed users, which is what initially attracted me to this knife. The FC61 steel benefits from the fine carbons, allowing for a blade that doesn't chip or scratch. The damascus design is created with 48 layers of steel, protecting the harder inner core metal, and resulting in a beautiful authentic design. The traditional pakka wood handle looks and feels great and is aesthetically pleasing as well. Prefer the six inch blade over the 8 inch length. Lighter weight, results in better control and less hand fatigue. Can't say enough about this knife!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I saw Eitan Bernath not using this knife on Facebook and knew I had to try it out. It is everything I thought it would be.
This is an amazing knife. The handle is very comfortable, being a bit thicker than the traditional D shaped handle. The is fashioned in the layered Damascus style giving it a real cool look. The steel is very strong and sharp and is easy to maintain. It is produced with traditional Japanese methods including the Hombazuke sharpening process. It is well constructed and a great purchase overall.
I love this knife for so many reasons! First and foremost, it is one of the most beautiful knives I've ever seen. Next, it is so sharp and you can really seen the fine craftsmanship that was put into making this knife. Lastly, I love that this knife isn't super big/long because it is easiest to maneuver.
Those who don't like using, maneuvering longer knives...this is for you!! Forged, Japanese carbide wrapped for additional stability create damascus pattern... with super balance and hardwood handle.
I love the attention to detail on this knife. From the smooth transition between blade and handle. to the beautiful damascus layers protecting the razor sharp cutting steel this knife is IT. As a traditional shaped chef knife it will get plenty of use in my kitchen. Meant to last a lifetime, the cutting edge certainly stays sharp and smooth unlike other Japanese brands that seem to nick a lot.
I love this 6 inch Kaizen chef knife. It is perfect for when I want something for smaller fruits and veggies. It has a crazy sharp blade and cuts with ease.
Super comfortable sized blade for all your daily chopping. This blade is razor sharp with a comfortable Japanese style D shaped handle and sturdy bolster. FC61 steel provides a super hard core that will retain the sharp cutting edge use after use and it is wrapped in 48 additional layers of steel to create a beautiful damascus design.
