Product Description

By entering your model number, you can make sure that this fits.

Because this single-edged kitchen knife is not like other kitchen knives, it makes an angled cut even when cutting food materials vertically. However, cutting from right to left with the blade in the lateral direction is simple.

This knife will allow you to complete the majority of the preparations for fish cooking.

When people think of knives for home use, stainless steel is almost always the first thing that comes to mind. Stainless steel knives have a number of advantages. The ability to resist rust is at the top of this list. They require little maintenance and can be used for a long time; in fact, different grades and types of stainless steel are used in kitchen knives, and professionals pay close attention to the type of stainless steel used in the knives they buy.

For the intended purpose and more, this is a fantastic knife

4/5

This knife was purchased specifically for the purpose of deboning chicken. Because of the amount of food I've cooked this year due to lockdowns and closures, I've found myself deboning at least a couple whole chickens or pre-cooking a couple of whole chickens. a couple of times a week, I pack chicken legs My larger knives were too big for this, and I'm a lefty, so finding a cheap honosuke has been difficult. The knife came sharp out of the box, and the handle, while not octagonal, fits my hand well for the price. Because it's stainless, I'm able to be a little more lenient with its care, and I've found myself using it to cut smaller items like garlic, ginger, tumeric, and shallots. You get my drift. As with any petty knife, you can spend less, a little more, or a lot more, but if you're looking for a low-cost option, this isn't a bad choice. And I apologize for the poor photo; I couldn't get my phone to take a decent picture today, so yeah.

This is a fantastic knife that surprised me with how well it worked

5/5

I've worked as a chef for 12 years, 5 of them in the sushi industry and at a very high level. Great price for a solid little knife that won't keep an edge for the entire day but will quickly return to razor sharp. Perfect for anyone new to knife sharpening and maintenance who wants to learn on a low-risk basis, or anyone serious who needs something that works but can't afford a $120 Miyabi utility. I didn't expect to enjoy it as much as I did.

Unlike a light saber, this blade is razor sharp

5/5

Take care! This knife is razor-sharp to the point of being dangerous. By accident, I lightly tapped my finger and received a severe cut. Take caution when using this. In terms of sharpness and quality, I have handcrafted Japanese swords that I would compare this knife to. It's absolutely incredible.
