Review Title: Review from MGH in Glacier national park
Customer Rating: 4 out of 5 stars (Very Good)
Reviewer Name: Joseph T. (Verified Purchase)
Review Date: 2025-08-27
Customer Feedback:
Very sharp, durable and my new favorite daily prep task knife. Its a bit of a longer hilt then what im used to but over all a great size. Holds edge very nice and a beautiful wood grip needs a bit of a adjustment to the weight but not in a bad way. Its lighter then it looks but that makes chopping that much easier

Review Title: I Should Send It Back - but I won’t
Customer Rating: 3 out of 5 stars (Average)
Reviewer Name: Jeffrey P. (Verified Purchase)
Review Date: 2025-05-13
Customer Feedback:
I really wanted to love this knife. But I don’t. The blade is thicker than necessary and the Spanish point is a design feature that kind of mutes the Nakiri form. It gets in the way for me, more than it helps. The knife was not what I considered sharp at first and took some effort to hone properly (it’s the thickness). The handle is perfect. All in all, an average German knife.

Customer Feedback:
Fell in love with this knife when I saw it in a video by Chef Oliva Tiedemann. It's smaller than I thought but it's probably my favorite knife. Beautiful handle and blade. I wish it had more of a rounded spine but not a big deal.
Great balance- love the edge/sharpness- and the Oliva Elite Nakiri knife looks stunning!\n\nI loved how it cut through vegetables almost like butter- knives out! It's on display on a magnet on my fridge!
