HOSHANHO Kitchen Knife in Japanese High Carbon Steel, Professional High-Class Chef's Knife 8 inch, Non-slip Ultra Sharp Cooking Knives with Ergonomic Handle | Multifunctional, 10Cr15CoMoV, Home Gifts

I cook quite a lot and sharp knives that hold their edge are very important to me since a sharp knife is much safer to use than a dull one. I have quite a few knives in my collection that include some of the more expensive ones such as Shun. In my search for knives a few years ago, I learned a lot about the metals used for knives, the importance of the angle of the blade, and the forging of the blades that held the sharp edge for the longest. I decided to try the Hoshanho knives, in spite of the lower prices on sale, since they met all of the criteria for high quality knives. In the past, I have tried quite a few of the higher priced brands, and found that many of them had to be sharpened out-of-the-box. I have used this knife a few times, and it cuts through everything easily with no effort, including tomatoes, potatoes, roast, etc. This chef's knife is my most used knife for cutting, chopping, slicing, and dicing, and I am very much impressed with the ease all of these tasks have been accomplished. I have ordered a few of the Hoshanho knives after initially ordering a couple of them. I am blown away by the sharpness of these knives when I received them. I love the appearance of these knives with the Pakkawood handles and the weight of them is perfectly balanced. A simple rinse with hot water is all that is needed to clean them. Since I have had this knife for a short time, I can't attest to the durability, but I will update this review if my opinion changes. I hope this review was helpful for you.

I bought this knife upon a recommendation from my son. It was fairly inexpensive so I did not have high expectations. This knife is the best kitchen knife I have ever owned. It came extremely sharp. The handle is very comfortable. I only hand wash it, but it is holding up great so far. I have had it for four months now.

After having family with me for a year, I got used to a very good, sharp knife. When they moved out, I was lost without it. So I ordered this knife. It is very sharp, cutting through a tomato like it was butter. The handle is a good fit in my hand. I can’t comment on how long the blade stays sharp under normal use since I just got it. But I am very happy with it now.

Extremely well made knife , comes very sharp right out the box which is perfec, nothing beats that factory edge on a new knife. It’s a well balanced knofe and feels great in hand. Easy to grip and use with its handle design.

Very sharp out of the box! And it was in a nice box with cutout foam and a tip guard. I’m 5’1” with small hands and I was looking for a shorter chief knife with a deep belly and a comfortable WOOD handle to fill in between my standard chief knife and my narrow bladed utility knife. This ticks all those boxes and then some. It’s brand new so I’ve no idea how long it will hold its edge but I love it!

Great sharp knife with comfortable handle grip.

Beautiful knife love it

TOTALLY BLOWN AWAY. I am chef in a very busy kitchen and I have a knife in my hand at least 6 hours a day non-stop.... I was needing to replace my work horse knife but really not ready to spend $200 for a new one. I looked on Amazon and read the reviews on this knife and it was at a discounted price so I said okay I'll give it a try... I buy really expensive knives and I can tell you that I don't think any of them are better than this one. This thing comes sharp I actually cut myself twice the first day using it (this is actually a good omen with a new knife). This knife is extremely comfortable in your hand, which was what I was looking for, and it slices through vegetables, meat like a razor blade. The quality feels amazing, it is super balanced not heavy but not light either. I am sold on this and will buy other knives from this brand should it stay sharp and hold up. I will update later to let you know how that goes. BUY IT! I LOVE IT!

Goede dienst en snel levering

I bought this knife as i needed one just for fruits and vegetables. It has good ‘weight’ and the design of the handle is ergonomic so it feels comfortable. The blade is also the right size for me. Am happy with my purchase.

Magnifique couteau, très tranchant parfait pour les viandes et les légumes.

Precioso y corta como una cuchilla de afeitar. Lo volvería a comprar y lo recomiendo.

Muito bom
