Dalstrong 6" Fillet & Boning Knife - AUS-10V Damascus

I have about 10 knives in my standard every day use rotation. For the money I think the Dalstrong is probably my top pick although I also LOVE just about anything by Yaxell (I highly recommend their ENSO HD series, they are a top performer, well priced and you'll probably be the only one you know that has them). Tojiro DP line is also a top bang for your buck pick and is a little sharper out of the box, but Dalstrong is MUCH better built and better looking. These Dalstrong Shogun knives handle an unbelievable amount of abuse and hold up.Dalstrong are very good looking knives. They seems to be a little heavier than my other knives, but being a larger fella I love the extra heft and I feel like I have better control. Dalstrong's handles are my favorite of all my knives. I end up using this knife more than others just because I love the feel of the handle. Edge retention is also very impressive on these.Forget about price, marketing, name, etc... which ever knife looks and feels the best TO YOU will probably be your favorite and most used knife. Dalstrong hits it out of the park in looks and feel FOR ME. You'll have to decide for yourself what you like.I rarely give a 5 star and what pushed Dalstrong into the 5 star is their customer service. TOP NOTCH! I seriously can't say enough good things about their customer service.

I ended up completely replacing my German made Henckel knives, I had been using for over 30 years. I was tired of having to hit them with steel every time I used them plus the monthly sharpening. I have been extremely happy with these Dalstrong knives so far, after two months of daily use, I have yet to have to sharpen them, and they are still sharp enough to shave with. I did purchase an extra Paring knife, just to practice sharpening. I would recommend that anyone interested in these make certain to view youtube on how to properly sharpen Japanese knives, sharpening is a time consuming proposition that turns into a labor of love. They are a handsome set of knives that really catch the eye and draw your attention to them. The handles fit my hands perfectly and the balance is great. They are a solid well built piece of hardware, that I am sure will last the rest of my lifetime, as well as the next generations to inherit them. I would agree that the some of the extra items shipped with these knives is overkill and the lapel pins are just cheap junk that found the trash. The plastic sheath is very nice and as sharp as these knives are is almost a necessity for personal safety.

Superb packaging come in a nice box and a sleeve straight out the box is razor sharp fits in the had well and well balanced can debone a chicken with ease. I’m not a chef or a butcher this is my 1st knife that I have paid more than $20 for and I should have got tjis years ago it really makes processing our chickens easy and faster I would give Dalstong 10 ⭐️ if I could Thank you Dalstrong for making my chicken processing a lot easier.

If you're looking for a stiffer than average fillet knife, this is perfect, buy it, you wont regret it. I have found that it's also completely awesome as a relatively large paring knife in the kitchen, and once I used it there, I realized that's where it needed stored. It's now one of my most used kitchen knives. For light tasks such as fine chopping and mincing, thinly slicing, piercing, deboning, etc., this knife is superb. The knife looks beautiful on the magnetic block but more importantly, it's extremely well balanced, stays very sharp reasonably long, cuts through about anything effortlessly, releases foods well due to the Damascus texturing, and is very easy to keep razor sharp with a steel and ceramic rod due to it's fine grind and thin blade geometry. It's a nice fillet knife, but if that's all you use it for, take it to the kitchen, you're gonna love it even more.

So, I finally got to use this awesome Filet knife today and it is another winner from Dalstrong . I am becoming slightly obsessed with their products and that is due to the sheer quality . It just doesn`t get any better than this . In my pre-Dalstrong life, I always bought mediocre products, I didn`t want to spend too much money, but I didn`t want the cheapest product either, but , if you use knives a lot, it really is worth it to bite that bullet and invest in some good quality items. This one is the Shogun series, really neat, ultra sharp, and the sheath has a little safety pin, to where it won`t fall off. All of their products come packaged extremely well and it feels like christmas unwrapping and opening the boxes. I am a Dalstrong fan for life now and I hope to be able to acquire a few more of their products. I never want to go back to dull blades and rip through meat or tear ripe tomatoes apart and squish them, I promise, it won`t happen if you use Dalstrong products!

DALSTRONG Filet Knife - Shogun Series - AUS-10V- Vacuum Heat Treated - 6" - Sheath - 2mm ThicknessSeems to be well made but mine was only sharp on the first 3 inches from the tip of the blade. Comes with a really cheap looking abs plastic sheath that has an extremely hard to use plastic retaining pin. I think ladies would need pliers to remove it every time.UPDATE: After 6 years of using this knife I love it.Pros-Can be sharpened to be sharper than any razor I've ever seen.Holds an edge for a very long time.Slices thick meat as if it were jello.Cons-Blade requires extra care since it chips easily.Requires a 1-inch belt sanding machine with proper belts and leather strop to produce the best edge.

This is the second Dalstrong knife that I have gotten. It’s really sharp, holds an edge for a long time, and looks really good. If you want a quality knife that isn’t going break the bank like some then this is the knife brand to get.

this knife is sharp, with a degree in culinary arts, and a bachelors in hotel management, 20 years cooking in a kitchen, this isn't a statement I make easily. this is the second Dalestrong shogun series knife I've bought, although I'm worried about the bolster being insufficient for industrial use, its very nice for home use. the steel is some of the hardest I've seen, I sharpen knives for people all the time and this one takes special stones to keep the 8-12% edge sharp. it also takes time to get dull, overall its one of the best knives I own, and I have about 30+ kitchen knives and use this one all the time. Its much more than a fillet knife, its a great utility knife.

Es ist ein premium Messer top einfach genial ich bin sehr zufrieden mit alles Schnelle Lieferung und das Messer ist Qualität Messing sehr hochwertig und echt scharf

Good quality, good handle, well balanced, cuts well but I wish that the blade would be a bit more flexible to filet .

Such a nice knife beautifully crafted and incredibly sharp. One nice enough to keep and pass on. A lovely damscus finish. I like it enough to buy the next one in the set the shogun series chef knife.
