HOSHANHO 7 Inch Japanese Chef Knife, Ultra Sharp Kitchen Santoku Knives | Professional Japanese High Carbon Stainless Steel Kitchen Knife, Cooking Knife with Ergonomic Pakkawood Handle, Gifts

Fantasy to work with. Sharp enough of the box. Sturdy, fits well in the hand. Keeps an edge for quite a while if you use it properly. Very good value for money paid

I initially bought the Nakiri from this brand (Hoshanho) which I recently reviewed. Now I have added this Santoku, both knives from their 'Loong' series. As with the Nakiri I am extremely pleased with this knife. Made from 3 layers of metal (can be seen at the ground edge of the blade) and a hardness of 62HRC....WOW if that is accurate this is one hard sharp blade. The design is very pleasing on the eye and the ergonomics of the handle means both my wife and myself find it comfortable to use....and as I write this the knife only arrived about 20 minutes ago...already used and reviewed...that's how good it is. The handle of Pakawood is very pleasant on the eye and is of traditional Japanese heritage and is normally found only on high end Japanese knives.. As I said in my review of the Nakiri this knife is 'not' Japanese made but Chinese. However a genuine Japanese knife of this kind it would cost at the very least 5 or 6 times the price of this...and that is for a cheap one. Would you really feel comfortable using something that expensive for fear of damaging the blade? I wouldn't. So these knives are the best option for everyday use, looks, ergonmics and all round good addition to any kitchen. There's a potential for a bit of inverse snobbery that could be attached to these knives......"Wow those knives look good, beautifully made and wow they are so sharp....must have cost a lot!"......We know they didn't. Now I have this Santoku and the Nakiri do I really need any more knives? Well these look so good, are so very good that I think it will come down to 'Do I really need another knife...Or want one? Who knows!!

Best knife ever, it does everything and it keeps the sharpness for quite a long time. Well balanced in your hand. I like the fact it doesn’t cost much.

Really good quality, I told my friends not to play around with this knife, but they cut their finer a bit. As a chef, I would recomend this knife for those who are looking good quality for less price, its not Japan real tech but it worth for the price!

Cracking knife, well balanced, cuts nicely. Love it

Very sharp and good quality

Well used and still sharp

I found this knife comfortable and easy to use for preparing vegetables.

Miy buen cuchillo llevo 3 meses con él y todavía no se ha desafilado, se siente muy bien en la mano y bastante ligero.

Saranno più di tre mesi che li comprato nessuna affilatura e taglia una meraviglia

Fantastic value. Great to use. Super sharp. The perfect all rounder!

Ich habe schon einige Küchenmesser ausprobiert, aber das HOSHANHO Santoku hat mich sofort überzeugt. Das Ding liegt perfekt in der Hand – der Griff ist ergonomisch, gut ausbalanciert, nichts wackelt oder wirkt billig. Man merkt sofort: Hier wurde nicht gespart. Die Klinge ist rasiermesserscharf. Egal ob Fleisch, Gemüse oder Kräuter – alles geht mühelos durch, ohne Reißen oder Quetschen. Kein Kraftaufwand nötig, keine Frustration. Genau so muss ein Messer schneiden, sonst kann man’s gleich lassen. Optisch macht es ebenfalls was her. Die feine Musterung auf der Klinge und die wertige Geschenkbox zeigen, dass man hier ein echtes Qualitätsprodukt in der Hand hat – perfekt auch als Geschenk, wenn man Eindruck machen will. Ich nutze es mittlerweile täglich – und greife kaum noch zu meinen anderen Messern. Klingt übertrieben? Ist aber so. Fazit: Wenn du ein echtes Arbeitsmesser suchst, das scharf bleibt, sauber verarbeitet ist und dabei auch noch gut aussieht, dann greif zu. Für den Preis kaum zu toppen. Absolute Empfehlung.

Super couteau coupant hyper bien parfait pour la coupe de légumes
