### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Quality knife
*by S***N on April 5, 2025*

My wife's favorite knife. Wonderful quality. Sharpens and holds an edge well After dipping into the world of Japanese knives for a couple years, I'm glad I've come back to German knives. No need to worry about the edge getting chippy with these Germans. Wife can cut whatever she wants
