[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The blade is so sharp for slicing anything you need it for. The edge also seems to hold for a while and it looks great on my wall!
I would recommend this to a friend!

One of the best

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] So for some of those who may not know; this one is a must. I work in kitchens, I've used several different knives from the Henkels, Wusthof, Sabatier, Dexter Russell, and even cheaper brands like Thyme and Table, Farberware, etc. I like the heft of the Wusthof, but I've used Torjio as well and I loved the edge retention and how comfortable both of them were. The Kaizen II has both; decent heft in the hand and a surgical like sharpness on the cutting edge, and it looks good. The balance hits right around the beginning of the bolster (personally it feels heavy in the rear because I use a pinch grip), but even though it's just a tad heavy in the back I can still easily tap chop for fine cuts, using a rocking motion is effortless since it has that weight. The handle is a great medium thickness for people who don't like a overly thick/bulky handle or too small it's not going to fit right, and I've got large skinny hands. Wouldn't recommend using a steel, definitely a ceramic rod or ceramic reinforce rod for honing. I'd say it's a great entry knife for people looking to get into Japanese knives, in my situation it's my first "real" knife. What seems to work as far as care is if you cut something I'll wipe mine off with a clean rag if I'm really busy but if I have time I do go back and wash, sanitize, and rinse as well as dry it off really really good. I would recommend this knife to anyone.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This knife is perfect! This is my second knife from this brand, I also ordered a bread knife. The bread knife was purchased last year and is still in perfect condition! The quality is something you just can’t get everywhere these days. I recommend these knives to everyone!

Crazy Sharp, a Pleasure to Use
on November 5, 2022

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] From the packaging to the aesthetics of the knife to the actual cutting, this knife is top notch. Vegetable prep is nearly effortless. The blade angle is quite acute; I would sharpen with a whetstone or send to Zwilling/Miyabi for sharpening. Don’t using a honing steel. Hand wash only and dry. Use a nice wooden cutting board and this knife should last a very, very long time.
