The 9" Chef's Knife is gorgeous! The blade is stunning, as well as the handle. I like how the blade is much thinner than my other Chef's knives. There is no task that is not a pleasure - brunoise of fresh, fibrous ginger root, bring it on. However, I am left-handed, and the handle is not shaped for me. It's D-shaped handle is for right- handed people. Yes, it does feel better in my right hand :( Yes, of course it is usable, but would it kill you to offer left-handed versions?
I’m obsessed with this knife. The curve is perfect for my chopping style and it glides through anything with no problem. The birch wood handle is soft and easy to grip.
There’s nothing to like about this knife unless you don’t appreciate beauty and precision craftsmanship. The birchwood handle is gorgeous and feels so good in hand. The flower pattern Damascus is also beautiful. My only regret is not going for the 9”. If you’re already in this price range and considering this knife, just buy it, but go for the 9”.
This knife is great! I am new to cooking, so I’ve only used a few other knives, but this is by far the best one yet. I’ve been using it for about two weeks now and the knife is not heavy compared to some other chef’s knives and the craftsmanship is amazing. I’m able to chop a variety of vegetables and meats without issue and my hands don’t get as tired working with this knife, it’s effortless. The blade is also extremely sharp, which makes it easy to cut a variety of foods. I have recommended this brand and knife to others.
After reading through lots of reviews and articles and finally deciding on this knife, I could not be more pleased. It arrived very sharp, has a great weight distribution, balance and hand feel to it. I would absolutely recommend!!
