 This is one of my two favorite knives |

I am a bit of a nut for kitchen gadgets, and I have to say that this is one of my two favorite knives (along with a 4" Henckels paring knife). It is both very sturdy and comfortable, but also light and thin, which makes a huge difference when cutting into things like butternut squash or large potatoes or root vegetables. It really is much better than most chef or santoku's, IMHO.
As to sharpening, I use an Aladdin Knife sharpener, a wall hanging unit which works very well with this and all my knives. It is not a purist's tool, but it works just right for me. It only needs sharpening about once a month for me, and does very well. |
A good quality knife

My wife had been wanting this knife for a while, so I ordered this for her for Valentine's Day. She's an avid cook, so this knife has already gotten a lot of use. So far, we don't have any complaints!
Also, this may be obvious, but the blade of this knife is incredibly sharp! My wife has already nicked her finger once or twice ;) |
An awesome knife

This knife has all but replaced my collection of chef's knives. It cuts everything from cheese to tomatoes effortlessly and smoothly. It keeps its edge well and only needs a touch with the sharpening steel every few days to maintain that edge.
Highly recommended. |

| I like to buy kitchen items for my wife once in a while as a surprise (she likes it...really). I had been seeing Santoku knives around quite a bit and they looked useful so I bought this one for her. It is now her favorite knife. I thought it was a bit on the light weight side, but she said that was good, not bad. It is definitely the sharpest knife I have seen right out of the box. Anyway, long story short, she thinks it's great and she knows quality after having had her own restaurant years ago. |
Outstanding for chopping and slicing

| This knife was all one would expect from a company of this caliber. It is lightweight, sharp, well-balanced and does an outstanding job cutting and slicing. The only thing better would be a set of these knives. |
