It slices through vegetables, meat, and herbs with almost no effort, and the ergonomic handle makes long prep sessions comfortable. Excellent craftsmanship and performance for the price. Highly recommended for home cooks and pros alike.

The quality of this knife is amazing. The packaging was top notch and you are getting a great gorgeous knife that’s razor sharp for a great price, It’s well balanced and easy to work, makes cutting anything effortless, I’m impressed with the quality! Love it .

Knife is sharp! Well made and is balanced right at the handle tang junction. Light and fast, but comfortable in the hand. I would buy another hands down.

Very High Quality Knife!!! Watch out for rust! Made sure it was dry after washing! Wipe it with a dry cloth! Very sharp knife!

Nice quality very sharp and very beautiful.

The packaging presentation is really nice. The knife is very light and so I wonder about durability. The tip of the knife is off centered, and I hope it doesn’t affect the knife. Out of the box, the knife is very sharp. I cut into a partially frozen steak and was able to make very thin cuts. It cut very well. I am delightfully impressed! If it can hold the edge sharpness and not chips, this will be a massive win for the price. Update: Returning because the knife is defective. I question if the knife is VG10 because the edge is sharp but defective. I cut partially frozen chuck, and a melon.

I've been using this knife for awhile now and I've been impressed with it so far. It retains a nice, sharp edge, cuts well and feels good in the hand. I haven't had any chipping or rust so far, but I do maintain it properly and avoid using it on hard materials like bone or nuts. Which you shouldn't be using a Japanese knife for anyway. I also wash and wipe it dry after every use. If you're willing to treat this knife properly, it will serve you well and it's a great knife for the price, when you catch it on sale.

Im satisfied with this knife very sharp light weight and like the design of this knife

Good knife. I bought it for work in the kitchen. Now I want to test other knives of this manufacturer.

Good quality and an attractive knife

Great knife no issues

The kiritsuke is a beautiful knife and the handle shape feels really good in the hand. The blade is very sharp and with the k tip it looks like a small samurai sword. The only issue i have is that the turquoise doesn't shrink at the same rate as the wood in a dry climate so there is a slight difference in thickness between the stone and the wood. This isn't really visible but you can feel a slight difference where they meet. All-in al, it is a fantastic knife at this price point.

VERY impressive! I've never had a knife so sharp and sleek! Love it!
