Regarding person who thought this "hurt her hand" - I have a Shun nakiri, this one, and a Chinese carbon steel one from my mother. I thought the rounded Shun handle would be more comfortable, but the Zwilling handle is actually more to my liking. Also, the Shun has more "heft" but I like the Zwilling better. Finally, both the Shun and Zwilling (and many knives today, I've noted) are sharp on the back of the blade, so if you switch to style of cutting where you grab the blade itself, it does get uncomfortable. I've taken a fine sanding disk to both sides of the top back edge of the blade and that's solved it. And what a deal!
I would recommend this to a friend!

Effortless!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I needed a back up to my 40 year old Caddie 6” knife decided to try Zwilling J.A. Henckels 6” knife. I received my knife yesterday and used it for the first time this morning. It feels good to hold, balanced weight, sturdy and cutting performance effortless. As vegans, our meal preparations consist of a lot of cutting and chopping having the right tool shortens my prep time and effort. As a first time user of a Zwilling J.A. Henckels knife my expectations, so far, have been met!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Got this knife as part of my monthly subscription to another retailer and I couldn’t be happier. The Nakiri came in a beautiful box, sharp, clean and ready to go! The Knife is well-made, perfectly balanced, and performs amazingly. This is my first Zwilling knife and will not be my last…

Zwilling Gourmet 6.5" Nakiri Knife

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a very well built knife and I should know being a knife collector for over 50 years. The construction of this knife is of the very best materials. I love slicing and dicing with this knife which is what this knife was constructed to do. It is money well spent. I am sure it will be passed down for generations. This knife was built to last! Just make sure that you hand wash only. This great gourmet knife was not intended to be placed in to the dishwasher. I highly recommend this knife for serious chefs or any person who appreciates quality kitchen cutlery! Enjoy :-)

Disappointed in the feel and edge.
on December 14, 2024

The tang edges are squarely ground and protrude slightly past the handle material. This is not a comfortable knife to handle. The grind of the blade is uneven from end to end and side to side. It is by most standards not sharp. The steel is a mystery. High carbon stainless means nothing to me. With a few hours on a stone and strop its edge could be corrected. A careful and good sanding of the tang and handle would correct the uncomfortable feel. For the price it is an ok knife. But one can do better with other knives of equal cost.
