I also thought the price (U$100) was reasonable for a forged, high-tech metal alloy knife; I don't have particularly large hands, but I'm sure this knife would be a favorite of those with larger hands. It is without a doubt the most incisive, out-of-the-box thinking. the- I've never seen a box knife like this before. br>br>The smooth, ample POM handle has a full tang. I'm going to hold off on passing judgment on the handle material, as it's most likely a compromise. off for the sake of longevity and sturdiness Regardless, this handle is well sculpted (is that a word?) and the bolster area allows for thumb and index finger grasp, which is a plus given its smoothness. Allow yourself to be reassured by the smooth handle. There are plenty of knives with POM handles on the market, but I'd be remiss if I didn't mention it. The serious cook as well as the non-serious cook will find plenty of room in this knife. serious. br>br>I haven't seen the "stamped" version, but I'm sure it's a nice knife, especially for those who prefer a lighter knife.
It's lovely and extremely well-made. Is well-balanced and carries a good amount of weight. I bought this knife to use in the kitchen. Acorn and winter squashes, for example, are large, hard vegetables that should be cut. The blade's width allows for a straight, skew-free cut. My regular chef's knife wasn't up to the task. Right out of the box, this blade has a razor-sharp edge. I'm glad I came across this hidden treasure.
To be actually usable on a good night, it only needs to be 2 inches longer.
This knife is a hybrid of European and Japanese style, and I would describe it as a very large Santoku knife. It is not a true vegetable cleaver because it has a slightly curved blade that allows for some rocking. A choice is made between a slight curve and a straight edge on a Nakiri vegetable cleaver, and the knives are wielded differently. This is the option I chose. This is a true treasure that is well worth the investment. I'm going to sharpen with a 15-degree angle - Japanese is a Japanese language. as opposed to 20 The edge will be sharper but more delicate, as it will be European. After you've purchased the 8" chef's, paring, serrated bread, slicing, and boning knives, this would be the 6th knife in your ideal collection. You won't be sorry for buying this knife if you just start with it.
