Chef Knife 8 Inch Damascus Japan VG-10 Super Stainless Steel Professional High Carbon Super Sharp Kitchen Cooking Knife, Ergonomic Color Wooden Handle Luxury Gift Box

Wife absolutely loves this knife!! Super sharp and durable edge.

I love it I use it for over 2 years now almost every day, it came extremely, extremely sharp and stayed that way.. It had maybe worn off a little.. still very usable after all that time.. Impressive.. I now sharpened it wit a machine a week ago and it's like new.. This thing for me is really worth it... If the Damast is really real or not.. I can't really tell I'm not a expert it looks real, and it's a very hard steal that's why it says sharp for so long. I bought one for my mother a year and a half ago.. Same story there still extremely sharp.

Super light, extremely sharp, very sleek wooden handle I LOVE

This is an excellent quality knife that is razor sharp out of the box. The knife is a work of art as it's as beautiful Damascus blade and handle. Extremely happy with purchase.

I’ve been using mine for a couple of weeks now and it’s a joy to use. The round handle is very comfortable and it’s very sharp. Makes my prep work easier. Just don’t get your fingers in the way.Update.Downgrade to 4 stars. Yes it’s very sharp but the edge is very weak. I tried to cut a thawed turkey neck in half and the edge rolled badly. Before doing that I noticed a nick in the edge and I hadn’t cut anything hard. Always hand washed it, carefully.

Sooo sharp!!! I love this knife! Have to use cut resistant gloves. This is such a wonderful quality Damascus! My favorite knife in my kitchen.

Nice damascus pattern with layers you can feel. Came extremely sharp out of the box, pops hair off the arm. Size is perfect for smaller dicing tasks. Handle is oblong and indexes the edge well. So far, I'm pleased.

The media could not be loaded. Got this as a gift from my son. I'm not a professional chef, but love cooking at home for my family. As such, I've never owned a knife this expensive, so I was super excited. Out of the box, the knife is absolutely beautiful from the Damascus pattern on the blade to the very end of the handle. The first thing I tried the knife on was a potato. Quite frankly, it was like sliding a hot knife through butter. The knife handle fits very comfortably in my hand unlike most of my other kitchen knives. The handle's shape and location on the knife are such that my knuckles don't hit the cutting board while using the knife. As of right now I am excitedly giving this knife 5 stars - would purchase again. Will definitely update down the road if needed, but so far, this is a must-buy for me.UPDATEJust a quick update. The knife is still awesome! I did have to hone it a bit, as it's my go-to when I'm in the kitchen and even the best blade will start to dull with use. It takes very little effort to put that edge back on and lasts for quite a while. I am STILL in love with this knife and would give an extra star if I could.
