Questions & Answers

Can this be sliced thinly and used for hard salami? Thanks a lot?

Even though I have not tried it with hard salami, I have not had any difficulty cutting anything with this knife. very sharp and very well balanced, making it an excellent knife. I believe this is the best knife I have ever used.

The 5" serrated knives need to be sharpened, how can that be done? You offer a sharpening service for serrated knives or can you recommend an appropriate sharpener?

Serrated knives can be sharpened with knife sharpeners. It's a bit tricky, but if you keep the right person around you can do it.

Can it be put in the dishwasher?

The chef knife is not something I would put in a The cleaning of a knife takes only a few seconds. Take good care of your tools.

Is there a serration on the right or left side of the knife?

The ones I have are on the right side. I can't wait to find out where they are. This is important, so why should we care? The steak knives that they came with are awesome, by the way!

The blade of this classic knife is sharp
5/5

The knives we had this winter in our rental were horrible. The reason I bought this knife was so that I could have a working knife. The blade of the knife is extremely sharp and the entire knife is beautiful. Of course, I will take it home with me next Spring and The knife has now replaced all others in the kitchen. The feel of the knife in my hand is very comfortable, and it cuts through a variety of food items effectively. For my sake, I hand wash and dry it, which I believe is worth the effort. During my time as a customer, I have been extremely satisfied.

I like how sharp and beautiful it is
5/5

This Cangshan V2 series knife is a favorite of mine Any object would be cut in half by them. As you can see, these are beautiful and sharp, so you must proceed carefully if you are not a professional chef like myself. If you compare the quality with other higher end knives that sell for well over $100, you'll find these knives are a great deal. While I do love using these and wish I could purchase more, I wanted to give them a try before I made any more purchases. The best thing I could recommend is.

This is a well-balanced, sharp piece
5/5

I have purchased a Cangshan knife twice now, and I like them a lot. They not only tend to be less expensive than other knives of the same quality (and far better quality than most knives at this price point, I have tried quite a few). It is sharp, comfortable, and well-designed This knife's balance is good, and it keeps an edge well (it has been about 6 months and there have been no signs of.

This utility knife is made of hard German steel and looks great
5/5

A well-balanced knife with a sharp cutting edge that will not become dull is well-suited to hand use and is well balanced in the hand. You can easily grip the handle because it is sturdy. In my opinion, it is a good knife. I look forward to using it for a long time.

As smooth and buttery as butter
5/5

You'll be glad you did. As easily as a hot knife slices through butter, this knife cuts through all of my kitchen needs. A knife that I keep in my kitchen is my best one. Despite my purchase being a little expensive, I have been very satisfied with it. The app makes my kitchen work so much easier and I rely on it every day.

Identical to a steak knife, I would call this an ideal utility knife
5/5

Relatively sharp and durable. There is one interesting observation I would like to make In almost every way, this knife is identical to the Cangshan Steak knives that come in sets. As far as per knife cost goes, the steak knife costs nearly half of what the chef's knife does.

Knife handles of the Cangshan As far as I know, it is just as good as what I bought for myself, but the price has nearly doubled since I bought it for myself
5/5

This knife feels more expensive than its price
4/5

This knife feels more expensive than its price. It is heavy, well-balanced and feels sturdy. The weight is perfect, and the outline is crisp. I definitely feel that this is a Knives like these are NOT infomercial items. They are sturdy and hardy. The guard at the handle is a nice touch- I was impressed with how well it was Please note This is the first set of really good knives I've ever owned. The only knives I used in the past were cheap ones.
