## Description

desertcart.com This knife's thin 8-inch blade makes any fine-slicing job a breeze and handles most big carving jobs easily. Henckels' International Classic is a moderately priced cutlery line made in countries other than the company's home of Germany. The steel is of lesser quality than that used in its premier lines. Also, the handles are narrower and shallower--a feature those with small hands might appreciate. While this utility knife is dishwasher-safe, hand washing is recommended. --Fred Brack Product Description PRODUCT DESCRIPTION Experience confidence with each cut.

Review: Excellent knife for the price. - The spine of the knife, the back of the blade, is very sharp. Every Henckles knife I've purchased (5 so far) has had this 'feature'. I have to use a rough stone on the back of the knife to soften the edge enough so it doesn't cut my hands during use. That's the only downside, these knives are excellent purchases if you knowingly put a little effort into them. They come factory sharp, but a strop with some compound gives them incredible lasting sharpness. They are right between a soft blade that is easy to sharpen and a hard blade that is brittle. So if you work with knives for a living these are going to last you a long time. My 8" classic chef from henckels is my workhorse, this 8" classic carving I use with taking skin and scales of fish or taking silver skin of beef. It's not as flexible as some carving knives I've used, but I think that's better.
Review: Great knife and the only one I use now! I love it! - I LOVE this knife! So sharp and such a quality knife. I've never had such a nice knife before and I have had a lot of expensive knives but this one is the very best! The grip is comfortable and easy to use. It's just the right weight and the length is perfect. Great seller, too. Well packaged and delivered quickly.
