Would buy again.

I bought this for my wife. She loves the fit and feel of the knife, and uses it every day. Our daughter came home for a visit and same result. She liked it so much that I bought her one for herself.

This is my new favorite knife. Its sharp, easy to hold, large enough to dice an onion - but not too large! I will grab this most often now.
I would recommend this to a friend!

This is my new go-to knife. It’s a great size, not too big but big enough to do a lot. It’s nice and sharp, and it feels quite sturdy while also being lightweight.
I would recommend this to a friend!

The blade is very thin and makes me think this a cheap copy of the excellent 4 Star set I currently own. Everytime I open the knife drawer and look at it I think, "How cheap Zwilling has gotten."
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Have used 4 star knives for more that 40 years and my originals are still doing fine I thought that this would be a good addition to the seti am used to working with a 10 inch chefs knife so this feels very light and the handle is the same size as a paring knife so is difficult for me to hold. It is a very pretty knife and sharp as a razor so I am not disappointed in the purchase and I suppose I might eventually get used to it
