I was looking for a 210mm knife for work, and choose this one because of the weight and height. Having never used this brand before I took a chance, and boy was I surprised. It arrived sharp but after a few swipes with the Edge Pro it was amazingly sharp. I have really enjoyed using it at work for light prep and garnish work. Great Knife and Excellent Value! Could not be happier!
