I am a Chef. Mega knife, elegant, precise, balanced. Wonderful to fillet fish, upto 4/5 kg dimensions. Retains the sharpness very long. I sharpen my knives with japanese stones 300/1000/5000. Tried softer steels but, even if they are easier to sharpen, I'd have to work them weekly. Worth it every penny

I am not a professional cook - I just enjoy good tools for whatever I'm doing, and this is a wonderfully designed and built knife for my kitchen. It is a real pleasure to cut meat and vegetables with this kitchen knife. It is very, very sharp which makes it so effortless and comfortable to cut through everything I use in cooking. This is the best knife I've ever owned.

Bought one for me and another as a gift for a friend, Always wanted a great knife but was reluctant to spend the money, now that I have one I almost never use anything else in the knife drawer, should have done this years ago, it makes cooking such a pleasure
