These are a great deal because they're fully stainless, and use excellent steel called 19C27, which sharpens up really well with good edge holding due to the HRC 60-61 heat treatment. Handles are made from pakka wood and have nice fit and finish.

Daily driver

Posted By: Zak

I've been using this at work for about 5 years, if I recall correctly. For a solid 3 it's been a daily driver, usually being the only knife on my station for service. Superb knife for the price.

Good knife for the price

I bought this knife on behalf of a friend who lives in a different country, but I got to use it for a couple of weeks before I gave it to him. Although it's not a fancy knife by any means, it looks better in person than in the pictures. Balance was good, and while the factory edge wasn't anything to write home about, I'm optimistic that the steel type will allow for good results on the sharpening stone.

Minami to santoku

Excellent knife fit and a finish is great. Very light and nimble without being delicate. Unique handle narrow and contoured with a half tang. Came with a good edge and the hamon pattern is pretty cool looking.
