I got a "normal" and "weird" complement for y'all.I've only cut myself ONCE in my life while cutting food, and it was with a serrated, dull asF knife 2 months or so ago. So I audibly said "That's it, I hate this F*****g knife." and bought a whole new set that only has serrations on it's steak knives, and the bread knife... and also bought this absolute beauty. (Also whet stones).Super sharp out of the box. I use it primarily to clean roast, and otherwise fine chopping/mincing. It feels great in my hand, it's balanced. I care about it so much I keep it in the original case with the protective covers for the corners and tell my partner they owe me $50 just for touching it.Okay, kinda weird, but stick with me. Although I really can't imagine cutting myself while using it on food...I was cleaning it last night (wont put it in dishwasher) after removing some edges of some aged sirlion roast - like slicing butter as always. While cleaning with a brush SUPER carelessly I nicked myself in the pinky with the tip. Surprisingly, I really appreciated, still, the sharpness of my knife. It was absolutley painless (until the isopropyl that is) and the 5-6mm deep x 1 cm long cut re-binded together in just 24 hrs with one dressing of guaze, neosporin, and thin cut athletic wrap for slight pressure XDNow, after 3 hours of drying it just looks like a 1.5 mm paper cut! Ready for the regularly scheduled copious amounts of hand sanitizer tomorrow for work, bandage free! ... and aquaphor :/Moral of the story is dull knives are more dangerous, sharp knives are less dangerous for me... but it's much nicer, on the rarer occasion that I do accidentally cut myself, to have a knife that doesnt 'maul' through my tissue, than one that does. It's much less painful, and heals much nicer. Also, it's good for the kitchen. REALLY good.This knife cuts CLEAN, straight out of the box. So be careful, and be ready to love your knife.

Very sharp knife that works well.

Quite impressed for the price. Definitely a great value. Cuts with minimal effort, very lightweight, super sharp, not much hand fatigue because of the ease in cutting. I’m a Cutco owner for the past 15 years and never owned any other brand of knives until this one and I’m truly impressed

A little on the heavy side. (with the hardwood handle). Razor sharp out of the box. Holds a keen edge. On the down side, the metal pommel is rough and has a sharp edge where it meets the wood. It feels like a cap and is not well milled to the handle. Weight wise, it could work well as a chopper. But I like a lighter, better balanced blade for slicing. I am comparing to my old santoku with a bamboo handle. I would not pay 70.00 dollars for it and at 40.00 I still think the fit and finish is lacking. That said, I will put it through it's paces and decide if it is a keeper or it belongs in my knife graveyard.

Nice sharp knife but my knuckles hit the cutting board. My other knives are fine I especially like the small paring knife

This is My absolute favorite knife. It’s super sharp, looks pretty too! I’ve had it for wagoner and it is still sharp.

We love this knife. It is sharper than the ones my partner bought online that were supposed to be nicer quality. This one I think beats the others that we have. We've had it about a year and it has lasted in durability and sharpness.

Great knife, reasonably priced. Super easy to use. Comfortable in the hand.
