The Reigetsu line from Tojiro was formerly called Fuji Narihira. These are very popular, good bang-for-the-buck knives made with Molybdenum Vanadium blended steel. The handles are made with durable POM material that won't crack or shrink. All finishing work and inspections occur in the Sanjo City factory of Tojiro. The initial grinding and heat treatment are done in China. This is a great option for line cooks!

For the price, you can't go wrong with this knife. I've used it daily in a professional kitchen like a petty knife. I hit it with some stones after about a week and it holds an edge pretty well. Most of my staff won't touch it because it's "too" sharp. Fit and finish is about what you would expect from a knife at this price point. My biggest issue with this knife is the handle and how slippery it gets when it starts getting wet from what you are cutting. Especially while wearing gloves. Beyond that, you can't beat this knife even at three or four times its cost.

First of all, five stars for value, although the fit and finish are just a skosh under Tojiro's own stuff, which Steve the video guy says himself. It's fine, just not the best you'll find. Overall a nice hefty knife with a beefy stainless blade that should have no trouble cutting through wing joints and so forth. Pretty sharp OOTB. One reason I got it was to practice sharpening a single-bevel knife that wasn't a pricey masterpiece. The videos I've seen suggest it's not that tricky but I just want to be careful not to scratch up the nice satin finish on the convex side. I don't have a chicken handy to take a test drive on but I think it'll be great for that and handy for other things too.

I don't own a lot of Japanese knives - just been getting in to them. Have used high quality Western knives for many years. I got this knife because I wanted to try out a honesuki. I break down whole chickens frequently and enjoy making boneless thighs. I highly recommend this type of knife for this. The pointed tip lets you easily separate joints while the wide heel makes deboning simple. The finish on the knife blade is really nice. As nice as much more expensive knives. The finish on the handle is average with some minor catchy spots. But for the price this is really impressive. Highly recommended especially if you are thinking of trying out a honesuki.

Beautiful knife. Haven't had a chance to use it yet, no chicken, but it's sharp and looks well made. Took it to a King's 1200 stone for a minute just because, I'm pretty sure it didn't need it but I wanted to. Stout knife, feels substantial
