Damascus Chef Knife Flat Blade

As a chef who teaches knife skills, I always tell my students that knives, especially chef knives, are very personal. The chef knife is the workhorse of the kitchen, and I use my chef knife for almost everything. Kitchen Emperor paid attention to the details, the knife is beautifully polished and I really like the way the knife blade and the handle meet (the bolster), it feels comfortable and smooth. The knife is a great value; cost on amazon is just $56.89 (an amazing pricing for Damascus steal) This is a great value for someone that does not want to break the bank buying a chef knife. It’s a great starter knife for the home cook. The handle scales appear to be made of carbon fiber which is well done; the rivets used for the scales are beautifully polished and the knife has a full tang. I like the radius of the blade, making it easy for rocking the knife when finely chopping. If you are in the area of Vienna Virginia, stop by Culinaria Cooking School and take this knife for a test drive and see how you like it. Chef Pete Snaith

2. I don't work in a professional kitchen, I just like to cook at home. Until I received this knife, I wasn't aware of how terrible the cheap, whatever-I-could-get-at-the-store knives I used before were. They felt mostly balanced and comfortable.The handle has a lovely weight to it and the balance is perfect. Pinch grip right at the bolster feels just right - the extra heft of the handle feels gone. It's almost like the knife were just an extension of my hand. I've only used the knife a handful of times, but the edge is still sharp.The packaging is superb and really makes this knife feel like something special. It contains instructions for use and care, a polishing cloth. I've only experienced a few products with such elaborate packaging. It's nice to come across.

This is a very nice knife. I am not a knife snob, but have owned some decent ones (including Shun, Miyabi, and Kyocera ceramics). This ones feels like it stands up to them well. It’s a big knife, so there is some nice weight to it. Handle feels good and appears to be nicely balanced. Testing it in cutting various things (vegetables, meat) all yielded excellent result.I do hope the blade holds up to its claim, which I feel like it should. Japanese knives all tend to be super sharp, but tend to get dull quicker. That’s why it’s important to learn the art of knife sharpening with a whet stone.Overall, happy with the purchase, especially with the price. Do keep in mind the size of the knife, and thus, making it a heavier knife.

Very sharp out of the box. Bevel isnt blunted near the handle, so its easy to nick your index finger if you slide up the handle which is somewhat slippery when wet. Otherwise, impressive quality for price.

This was a gift for my husband who loves to cook. He absolutely loves this knife! It's very well made-none better. Ergonomically perfect. Best Damascus knife he has seen. Great price!

Works great on all kitchen needs

This knife is extremely sharp, comfortable to hold and very attractive. I did cut myself when I barely touched it while washing, so be careful.

Amazing knife for a great price. Makes a perfect gift for the girl in your life.

===PERCHE' HO ACQUISTATO===Mia moglie è da sempre un'appassionata di cucina, e ho approfittato di un'offerta a tempo per prenderle un coltello professionale per la carne che cercava da tempo.===IL PRODOTTO===Il coltello arriva in una confeziona molto curata, perfettamente protetto con un pallino in gomma a proteggere la punta. Ad una prima occhiata da subito l'impressione di essere un prodotto professionale, molto ben curata è infatti anche la lama con i disegni in rilievo. La lama è già affilata, l'impugnatura comoda.===UTILIZZO===L'utilizzo di questo coltello è raccomandato a persone adulte e con dimestichezza, infatti è molto affilato e se non lo si sa usare può essere pericoloso. L'impugnatura è molto ben bilanciata, comoda e sicura. Il peso di poco meno di 300 gr lo rende anche maneggevole. I tagli nella carne sia cruda che cotta sono molto precisi, netti. In due mesi ha mantenuto l'affilatura alla grande. Un prodotto per veri chef insomma.===PRO===✅ Estetica.✅ Potenza di aspirazione.✅ Maneggevolezza.===CONTRO===❌ Batteria non rimovibile.

Buen cuchillo práctico, afilado y muy bonito. Buen empaque excelente regalo

I’m very excited when I received this knife,it’s really awesome knife.It’s in very good price and worth every penny you pay,you definitly deserve once you bought it.They are beautiful precision crafted, well balanced and comfortable to hold, the razor sharp blade cuts easily through all meat and vegetables. I get a thrill each time I use them, what was once a chore with my old knives is now a pleasure. A chopping board is a must and take great care when washing them after use. Great product, what's more, the company really wants you to be satisfied with your knife.Packed with very elegence gift box,so it’s also good choice for a gift.

J'ai été particulièrement impressionnée de voir à quel point il est équilibré et facile à utiliser et ne se sent pas trop lourd dans la main. Il est tranché à travers la nourriture préparée avec facilité et tous ont fait son travail avec une extrême facilité.La première chose que j'ai remarquée est l'emballage élégant qui reflète la qualité du couteau lui-même. Le couteau est emballé en toute sécurité dans une boîte en carton. C'est absolument nécessaire parce que le couteau est extrêmement pointu. Il coupe le poulet sans effort et n'a aucun problème avec les légumes. C'est certainement le meilleur couteau que je possède actuellement et à cause de ce couteau la cuisson est beaucoup plus agréable qu'auparavant. Au début, je pensais que le prix serait un peu trop élevé, mais je suis vraiment content de l'avoir acheté, car il est beaucoup plus facile de couper mes légumes et ma viande qu'avec mes autres couteaux. J'ai déjà acheté un couteau similaire à ce couteau Santoku, mais c'était beaucoup moins cher - je pouvais facilement sentir la différence entre la qualité et la netteté des deux couteaux.Pour le prix, cela doit être l'un des meilleurs choix, idéal pour quelqu'un qui veut expérimenter avec un Santoku, peut-être comme une alternative au couteau de chef occidental plus arrondi. Il se marie très bien avec le style de hachage asiatique traditionnel. le bord incurvé permet un bon mouvement de bascule pour un hachage fin. Vraiment, je ne peux pas vous dire à quel point ce couteau est de bonne qualité, bien équilibré, confortable, tranchant, solide et très facile à utiliser avec un magnifique damas.

Comprato per mia moglie che ama cucinare. Ho avuto modo di vederlo usare e provarlo. Il manico è ben bilanciato e la lama è resistente e molto tagliente. Anche le decorazioni sono ben fatte. Consiglio l'acquisto.
