One Impressive Knife
I own Kyocera ceramic knives and other Shun knives so I'm used to quality knives in general. This knife has exceeded my expectations in every way: it's balanced, beautifully finished, it can handle any loaf size with its long and sturdy blade, it glides through soft and hard breads with ease allowing me to cut almost transparently thin slices. This is a wonderful knife worthy of the high price you pay.
oh yeah.
I purchased this after reading, looking, and thinking a lot. This is a very nice knife. Mine is much more polished than the one in the photo, so it doesn't look as rugged, especially since the hammer marks are all polished, though still present. Anyway, it's smooth to the touch everywhere but the cutting edge of the blade. And the blade is super thin at the cutting edge. Goes through bread with very little work and cuts the straightest pieces I've ever made. Used it to carve a whole chicken the other night... it would be perfect for thanksgiving! I've used cutco for a while and I believe that this will hold an edge better than cutco's french chef knife, mainly because it is thinner at the edge. Not sure about longevity, but if I take care of this I think it will last a really, really long time. Also, as for the metal work in the blade... most of the knives out there ($75 and up) will last a life time with a bit of care (shun, wustof, cutco).
Our ability to make...
Fast delivery and perfect condition!
I was so pleased with the Shun knife that I ordered. I ordered it right before the Christmas season, and it came within 5 days of my order. It was beautiful and I am so pleased. I will absolutely order again!
