This is an excellent knife and a very good value. It is relatively non-flashy looking which makes it a great every day use knife. It's good knife to use on vegetables and it takes a lot more abuse than description suggests. The fit of the blade into handle is great and is well sealed. Overall I'm very happy with my purchase.

Excellent knife!, May 13, 2024Posted By: Sam
I put off buying this knife for a long time because of the warning in the item description of it being delicate. I will say that I do not find the one I received to be delicate at all, at least compared to lasers I own. The fit and finish is great, nice and comfortable, no sanding or sealing needed. It was not sharp out of the box, but that didn't take long to remedy. I have put this knife through it's paces on a fair amount of produce now and it is turning out to be a very nice high performing all around knife. I wish I bought it sooner!
