Very Sharp
This is a great chief knife at a great price. The quality is very solid and the knife is extremely sharp. The design and markings on the knife makes it look absolutely beautiful. The knife is easy to handle and grips well for safety. A must have in the kitchen and doesn't break the bank.

Amazing lifelong set of knives, you'll never need another! VERY SHARP!!!
Absolutely gorgeous quality, meticulous details, well balanced and insanely sharp!!! Be extremely careful when using these knives they require very minimal pressure to cut. If your accident prone please have a 1st aide kit with hemostatic powder to stop bleeding on hand. That said the handles are ergonomic and help with control of the blade as well as grip fatigue. These knives make a wonderful gift that will last a lifetime if properly maintained. Might be a little costly to get the entire set all at once but will save you money in the long run and make a wonderful show piece in your kitchen. The packaging they come in is pristine and elegantly artful I almost want to keep them in the packaging!

Beautiful, Balanced, Effective
I have the 8” knife but needed a quality pairing knife. The craftsmanship of these products are remarkable. The balance of the knives are unparalleled. Love the Damascus steel too! I have no problem recommending this product and others from this manufacturer.

Great kitchen staple
Nicely weighted knife, sharp and precise edge, get handle grip, good for everyday use, well constructed, would highly recommend as a kitchen staple but not to be compared with high end German or Japanese products. Competitive pricing for quality.

Every kitchen needs a top-notch paring knife
In my opinion, you only need a few knives to really have a great cooking experience. Among them as a high-quality paring knife. I needed to replace one that was lost from my long-term set. I’m an avid home cook and rely heavily on my knife skills for chopping vegetables and other preparation. This particular knife is absolutely amazing. Well balanced, wonderful steel in the blade. I like the size of it. The summit may seem a little on the heavy side, but it fits my body habitus and strength very well and I’m just absolutely delighted with it. I would advise anybody to buy this. It’s an excellent price for the quality of the product. I also would advise anybody who buys it to be. Very careful when you first open it. It truly arrives razor-sharp!

Absolutely beautiful high quality knife
I absolutely love this knife. It fits incredibly comfortable in my hand. I like the weight and feel of it, but I also love the look and style of it. All components of the knife feel very high quality. The handle and tang are clean, smooth and solid. The blade has a faint Damascus pattern which may not be as pronounced as other might like, but looks great to me and it comes perfectly sharp. I'm also very appreciative of the hard plastic sheeth with a velveteen interior. The sheeth makes the knife easy to store without damaging the blade or risking someone cutting themselves reaching into the drawer. While packaging is nowhere near as important to me as the product, I must also mention that the knife comes very carefully and beautifully packaged. It's the kind of packaging that you almost feel like you need to keep it. For reference; I'm a home chef not a professional, but I am a bit discerning when it comes to my kitchen tools. I really like to use quality kitchen tools and gadgets, but I don't have the budget to just throw money at the really top end stuff. My goal is to find those secretly high quality items that don't break the bank. This knife has quickly become my favorite, even over a more expensive Wusthoff knife I have. I give this knife my 100% recommendation and will be buying 1 or 2 others to replace some others of my set.
