## Questions & Answers

**Q: Does this come with any type of guarantee?**
A: Hello Nathan, thank you for this important question and considering our Zelite Infinity Brand.Quality is the "life-blood" of our Brand and Business and we take this responsibility Very Seriously which is why we back our product with a "Lifetime risk-free guarantee. 100% Satisfaction or your money back, no questions asked". It means no risk for our customers.The knife is manufactured in our state-of-the-art factory in Yangjiang, China. The blade material is Japanese VG10 Super Steel 67-layer Damascus imported directly from Takefu in Japan, which boasts a very respectable Rockwell Hardness HRC of 61 +/- 1. Each knife is painstakingly crafted over a 60-day manufacturing cycle time by our most skilled artisans using the strictest German SOP's (Standard Operating Procedures). Further, each product is 100% quality inspected prior to being made ready for shipment. Yangjiang is famous as the capital of knife and cutlery manufacturing in China and has been for over 1500 years. This is one of the reasons why we built our factory here. It means we are able to offer you incredible value, using the same materials as used in the more established brands like Shun, Miyabi, Yaxell etc. at a fraction of the cost.TIP: If you are looking for a product only made in Japan, try brands such as Shun, Tojiro, Yoshihiro, Miyabi or Global. Hope my answer has been helpful for you.

**Q: is this castle forged Valyrian steel?**
A: Hi Andrew,No, Our chefs knife is Japanese VG10 Super Steel that is clad with 33-layers per side of High Carbon Stainless Steel finished with the Tsunami Rose Damascus Pattern. Hammer finished with the traditional Japanese Tsuchime Finish.It means you are getting razor sharpness, fantastic edge retention with stain and rust resistance - not common with chef knives.The handle is military grade G10, full tang, finished of with our famous 3-metal (stainless steel, copper and brass) Japanese mosaic RivetHope this helps

**Q: which is the best sharpener for this chefs knife?**
A: Thank you for the question Shieldsman, Honing and Sharpening perform different functions. You should hone your knife regular - maybe every 6-8hrs worth of use and this will ensure it keeps its sharp edge. Honing only removes the microscopic burr that it put on your edge after general use - it does not remove metal, only removes the burr and realigns the edge. For honing steels, you will want one with a 10" or longer rod and with a hardness greater than your knife which is 61 Rockwell. Ceramic Honing rods are popular as here you don't need to worry about hardness. I don't have a specific one to recommend as the choice is so vast on Amazon. Sharpening depends upon your skill level with using a whetstone. If you are confident using a whetstone, then we recommend the King 1000/6000 whetstone - this is very popular. A lot of our customers prefer to send their knives to a local sharpener if they are not as confident using a whetstone. I actually found it difficult to use the whetstone at first, so I recommend practicing on an old knife if you choose this route. I found the technique in the below link to be the best and easiest to use for consistent results: https://www.chefsteps.com/classes/knife-sharpening Amazon is a great place to make these purchases as they have a great selection to choose from. There is a system called "Wicked-Edge" which takes the skill level away from using a whetstone, but they are very expensive. You will see examples of these on YouTube - here you can set the angle of your blade to anything you like and get really consistent results. A leather strop is the final touch if you want a mirror finish and razor edge. Here is the link to a leather stop which is a good product (this is for after the 6000 grit stone to give a mirror finish): https://www.amazon.co.uk/Razor-Shark-Inches-Single-25-4080/dp/B018CWXDWY/ref=sr_1_18?ie=UTF8&qid=1473845016&sr=8-18&keywords=leather+strop This is a link to the paste used on the strop: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Tormek-PA-70-Honing-Paste/dp/B00149DIBE/ref=pd_bxgy_86_img_2?ie=UTF8&psc=1&refRID=EHMEDHBJS5Z2V15HBPYN A lot of people just hone their knives regular, but if you want the entire process to get a professional razor edge after dulling, I have provided the process above. General good tips are to cut on blade friendly materials such as wood, bamboo or plastic. Surfaces such as stone, glass or ceramic would quicken the dulling process. I hope the above has been helpful for you.

**Q: Is it actually 67 layers or is it actually 67hrc hardness? (67 does not divide by two very well)**
A: Hi Chris,Thank you for the question - let me explain to help make it more clear.Our Chef Knife uses Japanese VG10 Super Steel as the center core of the blade which is then protected by 33-layers per side of SUS410 High Carbon Stainless Steel making a total of 67 layers. The blade itself has a Tsunami Rose mirrored Damascus pattern and really does look stunning.After heat treatment the blade is Cryogenically cooled making the knife even more resistant to staining and rust, and the resulting Rockwell Hardness is HRC 61.The knife is sharpened to around 12-degrees per side for maximum sharpness and also outstanding edge retention.We used these Japanese materials (which are one of the best on the market for high end kitchen knives) so you can have razor sharpness with outstanding edge retention, but also get the benefits of rust and stain resistance.The handle uses a military grade G10 material which has outstanding mechanical properties including fantastic heat, cold, moisture and impact resistance and also has great wear resistance properties. It has a classical 3-rivet design with the center one being a 3-metal (brass, copper and stainless steel) Japanese Mosaic rivet. The handle is rounded and is very comfortable to hold.The bolster has a tapered bolster making it ideal for Chefs who like to use the pinch-grip when chopping, slicing and dicing.I hope my answer above has been helpful.

    I can only echo what everyone else has said about this knife and the seller
  

*by F***3 on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 3 November 2016*

I've had this knife in my wish list for some time but last Saturday it was reduced by £20 during an Amazon lightning sale so I finally pulled the buy triggerThe knife was delivered within 24 hours from purchase and does indeed come in an amazing presentation/storage boxLike a child on Christmas day I couldn't wait to give it a try so I got the knife out from it's box, some onions, shallots and garlic from the fridge. I am nothing more than a regular guy who likes wants to improve my cooking skills and I enjoy cooking semi fancy looking food for my children (My greatest critics) from ideas I see on the TVThe knife is so beautifully weighted, it has a solid weight which gives a feeling of quality but without being overly heavy. The handle feels well built and comfortable in my hand.The mirrored polish of the blade combined with the inlaid patterning just screams quality at youAs others have said the knife is incredibly sharp so do keep it away from younger childrenI first grabbed a shallot, cut off the ends and then sliced down the centre, the knife cutting as if it were a hot blade through butterI'm no professional chef but the knife gave me the confidence then to julienne the shallot and I was almost cutting like a professional chef both in accuracy and speed because of the sharpness of the blade and the confidence this knife gives youI then chopped the onion, again with speed and finally I sliced the garlicThe next day I decided to cook pork belly where the knife was used to score the fat (against effortlessly) and then to cut the joint after cooking into 3 portions. The blade again making short work of cutting through the crackling on top and the meat itselfThe seller sent an email 24 hours after delivery to check I had received it and to ask if I was happy with my purchase. This is a level of professionalism seldom seen from sellersI absolutely adore this knife and advise anyone thinking about it to buy without delay.The cost might seem a little high at first but as soon as you receive it and use it you soon change to the opinion that it's actually UNDERPRICED for the beauty and performanceI've added the 8" Chef's knife from this seller to my Amazon wish list. I do hope one of my (adult) children take the hint

    Is it worth the money ? - DEFINITELY !
  

*by L***X on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 1 March 2017*

This stunningly beautiful knife is very well presented in a flashy box and furnished with a super comfortableand well shaped handle that always makes it a joy to use.The six inch blade length is surprisingly long for a utility knife - at first I thought this would make itawkward to use but the very planted way it sits in the hand with absolute stability offsets this andrenders the Zelite with an agility that is unusually good for this size.It has an essence of solidity missing from many cheaper knives and does cut very well indeed butwith the blade ground at a steeper angle than I personally prefer.Fairness dictates that utility knives are, of course, supposed to be good all rounders thereforeI must grudgingly concede that a steeper blade edge grinding angle is probably a technically correctprovision by Zelite for such a tool.(Steeper blade angles cut for longer and survive tougher Jobs, Shallower blade angles cut smoother but bluntmore easily.)The Rockwell hardness 61 steel core on this knife is really hard and strikes the sweet spot for goodhardness without being too brittle - I think the factory edge undersells the true capabilites of this steelbut I just know I will be able to re-sharpen it even sharper to my preferred shallower cutting angle when thetime comes.  - (Yeah, I admit am a bit of knife sharpening nerd etc)Somehow, I think I will be waiting a long time.  - Excellent knife - I bought the 10" Chefs knife too.Update July 2017: This working utility knife now been used heavily, still as sharp as bought but I still reallyhate that steep long life factory angle so I have decided to risk re-setting it:It took well over an hour to hand sharpen the edge angle back from 15-20° ? to around 12°: Very, very hard steel indeed.I used 800 grit then 2000 grit then 10000 grit then a light strop on leather. Wonderfully fine grained steel.Result = The sharpest blade I have ever had in my kitchen. About as sharp as a cut-throat razor. Be interesting to see how long that edge holds!

    Re-reviewed after a year or so of use......
  

*by S***R on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 31 August 2020*

Second review after a year or so of use.I've only used this only on vegetables, cooked meats etc and never as a clever or on anything that could damage the blade.  That said, it has niches all along the edge and they have started to show signs of rust.  It's still a lovely knife to hold and use but has to be sharpened more often than any other knife in my kitchen.  The niches never sharpen out as they are deeper and would result in a lot of metal being removed, thus shortening the knifes life.  Good pics are awkward but zoom in on these two and you'll see the problem. I have to say that I'm now dissappointed with this knife and can't recommend it to you.Original review was five star as follows;This is a beautiful knife, I use it every time I can.  Balance is perfect, it feels very comfortable in the hand and is as sharp as a razor.  It was delivered very quickly and comes packed in a sturdy presentation box.  I've had Santoku knifes previously and this is the best yet, highly recommended.
