FINDKING Prestige Series Kiritsuke Knife with Walnut Cover, Japanese VG10 Damascus Steel Blade, Ebony Wood Octagonal Handle, Professional Sashimi Sushi Fish Knife (9 Inches, with Wooden Gift Box)

I’m not a professional chef but I do cook at home every day and I take pride in how the food is prepared and how it’s displayed. That being said, for me a good chef knife is the most important tool in the kitchen.After lots of research I ordered this Kiritzuke knife to replace an old beat up Gyuto I’ve had for years.I decided to buy 2 knives, one for myself and another for my best friend. I live in Southern California and It took 4 days for the first knife to arrive and 6 days for the other, even though I ordered them at the same time. The knives were well packaged and arrived undamaged. Straight out of the box the knife is razor sharp. The workmanship is good and the knife feels like a quality knife when held. It is kind of a heavier knife, one weighs 250 grams and the other 258 grams. I’ve only being using my knife for a few days and like it so far.The only thing that upset me about this deal was that after I ordered the knives I found them for $40 less on a different website, so I could of saved $80. But I guess that’s Amazon for you.

The knife becomes very dull after a few uses and the material of the knife is not suitable for the price

A well rounded knife and well designed for it's heft of the steel, along with the heavy weight of the stainless steel body.

The media could not be loaded.  This knife is a work of art on top of being a super sharp tool in the kitchen... Your friends will definitely take notice when you start carving through a nice piece of blue fin with your new blade... Buy it now and you won't regret it.. I definitely don't..

This is one of the most beautiful and well balanced knives I’ve ever owned. I’m a Chef at a well known Japanese restaurant here in Boston. I don’t have any uses for subpar knives. I had a Yoshihiro blue steel Kiritsuke that I thought was untouchable. Well I was wrong. Findking Prestige series 9” kiritsuke is well worth the $ and the short shipping time from the factory. It was a birthday present and I’m very grateful. All the Findking knives I own are top quality regardless of the series.

Love Love Love this knife - I took a sushi course and rewarded myself with this knife -- it is spectacularI also use it all the time for trimming brisket - I know it is a sacrilege, but it works so well - it is very sharp - be careful

I love the handle and the quality is very good, and very sharp

Quality knife, good to work with them
