Beauty and Functionality

This is one of the most beautiful knives I've ever seen and I love how it feels in my hand. The handle is nice and curved and feels like it was made for my hand. I love the pattern on the blade and love displaying it in my kitchen. I love that this knife has a wide blade that makes it easy for me to transfer the vegetables I've chopped from the cutting board to the pan in one move.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Sharp Santoku
on March 24, 2020
Posted by: Cast Away
The redesigned Kaizen II has a 49 layer Damascus pattern and Pakkawood handle with larger bolster for added comfort. Scalpel like sharpness has not changed as evidenced with this santoku which permits precision chopping with its straight edge.

Updated Kaizen II is a home run
on March 31, 2020
Posted by: CookinginCali
If you liked the sharpness of the original Kaizen, but found the handle a little foreign, then it might be time to reconsider the Kaizen line. The handle and the bolster were beefed up to provide more feedback with a firm pinch grip. The 49-layers of steel are hand finished to an extremely sharp edge that holds. It has a double Damascus pattern that is stunning.
This santoku blade shape is set at just the right angle so that when you are chopping the knife finishes the downward motion automatically.

The Santoku is one of my favorite knives to use in the kitchen due to the versatility of the blade profile. You can use the santoku on meat, poultry and vegetables, and will find that it is easy work with the D-shape handle which fits perfectly in the hand. This knife is sharp and will retain it sharpness due to the FC61 steel and the special ice-hardening process.

Perfect knife for chopping tons of vegetables! The Kaizen 11 is definitely an upgrade from Kaizen. The FC61 steel is much sharper, and the edge retention is superior to some of the other Japanese steels. Also very durable, no chipping or cracking whats so ever. Looks great, performs even better!

The Santoku knife is a great addition to a basic knife set. It's blade is similar but shorter than that of the chef's knife. It's especially good for very thin slicing.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I could not believe the performance of these knives. Cuts through fish like room temperature butter. Makes cooking so much funner and more efficient! Love these and would recommend everyone to get them!
