Sharpest knife I have ever owned

Came razor sharp out of the box and the balance is perfect. Cuts straight through tomatoes like paper.

Bought it as a gift, he loves it

Got this for my husband who cooks every night. The Damascus pattern is stunning and he says it glides.

Restaurant quality at home

I cook professionally and this holds an edge better than knives twice the price. Shipping was fast too.
