THE Chef Knife

This chef knife truly helps you cut like a “pro”. The curved bolster really allows you to get a pinch grip on the blade and gives you complete control and comfort. The curved tip of the knife lets you get a smooth rocking motion when cutting and makes it much easier to be precise. I also really enjoy the feel of the handle that is completely smooth between the tang and handle.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Pro is the Way to Go

This is the most comfortable knife I have ever used. Got it just before Thanksgiving and was SO glad to have it. Preparing a meal for 20 I did a lot of chopping and dicing to prep for Thanksgiving dinner. The knife is so sharp, didn't put stress on my wrist or arm like my old knives did. I used that knife for several cooking purposes that day. I think the curved bolster makes it comfortable and allowed me to grip the knife easily and safely .
I decided to buy this particular knife while watching MasterClass with Gordon Ramsey and admired his amazing knife skills. He talked about importance of good knives. No news to me, I am obsessed with them and have Shun, Kamikoto, and others. I got a screen shot when he put the knife down, because I had to have this one. I saw how it was smoothly going through different meats, veggies, herbs. I ordered it right away, and have been using it all the time. Totally love it. The only downside is that I still have to order correct honing steel. Since the hardness factor of the sharpening steel has to be higher that the one of the knife, one has to use Zwilling J.A. Henckels sharpening steel for honing their knives.

Tired of working with chinzy, poor quality cutlery. My friend has this knife and I went by her recommendation, so glad I did. This knife is the shapest knife I've every used. It cuts through all the veggies I need for salads and stir frys. Wish I had this years ago, would have made my work in the kitchen so much easier.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was tired of cheap knifes that dulled quickly and this is my first investment of quality. It's so sharp! Cuts great, easy to hold.

Best chef's knife I've owned
on August 5, 2020

Frequency of use:Daily
Many years ago, I was a partner in a chain of 24-hour coffee shops. I spent a fair amount of time behind the cook line, filling in for cooks who were late or swamped. I don't miss those days at all, but still cook for pleasure.
Spending hundreds of hours doing volume cooking makes you appreciate having the right equipment. Although durability is important in a commercial setting, having tools--especially knives--that do their job well is critically important.
I bought my 8-inch chef's knife about six months ago and have used it every day. It is exquisitely sharp and has maintained its edge perfectly using only a steel from time to time. It is on the heavy side (a plus in my opinion) but perfectly well balanced. The shape of the handle and bolster fit my hand well and facilitate precise handling. Even mundane tasks like chopping vegetables has a sort of sensuous, pleasurable feel.
I expect to pass this beautiful knife on to my children. Highly recommended.
I would recommend this to a friend!
