Beautiful knife

"My daughter bought me one and I LOVE it!"

— Debbie G. (5/5)

Like it a lot. Cuts

"Like it a lot. Cuts through food very easily. I was a bit surprised at the finish the blade has on both sides, as if it wasn’t polished to some degree. It looks unfinished, with a random surface finish that looks odd, cannot describe it…. . but perhaps that is the way it is. Nice weight and balance too."

— George G. (5/5)

Bought this as a gift

"Bought this as a gift for the wife and she absolutely loved it! The weight is good, and it cuts smooth like butter."
