My first wide bevel knife
Posted By: Ryan Wu
I love it I love it. Ginsan feels amazing to sharpen and takes a finer edge than some of my carbon steel knives. It’s also incredibly thin behind the edge and makes it feel like I’m ghosting through vegetables. The fit and finish is also top notch. You’re really getting what you pay for and more.
