Beautiful and effective. I'm left-hand and noticed this knife is probably made for right handed people because the handle shape is asymmetrical. I can still use it easily enough and I love it, so I'm keeping it. I do wish they made a left handed version
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This beautiful Santoku Knife is a piece of art and a precision instrument to cook a gourmet food. I recommend 100% this product.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Beautifly crafted and fits the hand (right) well. Sharp out of the box and seemingly holds edge well though have not used it enough yet to say with certainty.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The knofe is gorgeous, the handle’s style fits wonderfully into my hand and gives a good solid grip on the knife, and the 7” blade is perfect for almost any kitchen use.
Bob Kramer knives are truly works of art. The Meiji 7" fine edge santuko is another fine example. One hundred layers of stainless and nickel damacus protect the FC61 core steel creating a rich and interesting pattern design. The traditional Japanese handle is Charcoal Pakkawood, adding to it's elegance and ergonomic design. The half bolster features a nice curve which allows for greater comfort and permits using the full blade for cutting and sharpening. Double tapering keeps the weight in the middle resulting in perfect balance and less fatigue. Perfect design and gorgeous as well!
