HEZHEN 7 inch Nakiri Knife Japanese High Carbon Steel-Super Durable Cooking Knife-67 Layers of Damascus Steel Sharp Blade -Ergonomic Design for Figured Sycamore Wood Handle

This is now my favorite utility knife. The blade retains a sharp edge and the handle does not get "slippery" when dissecting fatty meats.

Good quality materials. Easy to keep sharp. Feels good in hand. Looks good. Good price.

I've only had this for a couple weeks, but it seems really, really nice. Great all purpose asian style cleaver...very nice quality for the money. Not for breaking bones, etc, but really good for everything else. Cutting vegetables, meat, etc...all great and does not stick. I have a Wusthof asian chef's knife that was twice as expensive and very nice, but it sticks when chopping vegetables, especially cabbage, while this does not. Great balance and weight. I would suggest coating the handle with some Boos Block board cream after each use... while beautiful out of the box, the sycamore handle seems very absorbent. The beeswax and mineral oil combo seems to retain the luster and seal it from liquids. Very happy with my purchase.

The pattern doesn't show up as well as it does in thier pictures. But I don't think any of them really do. These are Chinese made, but they are extremely nice. Every bit as good as Japanese knives. Definately packaged like a quality product if your looking for a gift, they won't dissappoint! They are sharp right out of the box. But I've already used one enough to test sharpening. It was quite easy, so it takes an edge very well. Love the handles. Obviously, hand wash, dry immediately, bees wax or boos conditioner on the handles, as needed due to use. Care for the blade like you would any fine quality knife. I'm glad I gave them a try! Yes German is best says my husband, but I always liked Damascus.

This knife looked promising, but the quality is severely lacking. Despite the claims of using high-grade Damascus steel and advanced craftsmanship, the blade I received had visible imperfections and dull edges right out of the box. The supposed "super sharpness" was non-existent, and after just a few uses, it began to chip and rust. The handle, while aesthetically pleasing, feels cheap and doesn't offer the comfort or balance as advertised. I expected much more given the price and the glowing description.

Very nice!

Sharp, but more importantly comfortable. I have other sharp knives and I haven't owned this long enough to comment on durability, BUT this is the most comfortable knife I have ever used. No hot spots, no sharp angles on the spine. And it looks great.

I totally love this knife. It is well made damascus blade and is super sharp. I maintain the edge with a couple of swipes over a ceramic "steel". The handle is beautiful and feels really good and secure in your hand; even when wet. I would purchase the entire set if I needed them.

Gostei de tudo, inclusive da entrega, pois recebi no início do prazo estipulado. Parabéns!

I’ve had the nakiri knife for 2 yrs now and i can say it still looks like the first day i got it. Love the overall look, the handle is gorgeous and the damascus steel is sharp. It’s my main knife eventho it’s a nakiri knife, i use it all the time. Didnt have to do any major sharpening after all this time, i just swipe it a few times on one of those sharpening tools every once in a while and it’s back to super sharp again (i like my knife really sharp btw). And yes it is a chinese brand. Only downside for me is that I wish it was a tad bit cheaper. That said I am saving up to buy the matching cleaver.

Before buying this knife I read some of the comments. It is an exceptional knife. I am a professional woodworker with over 30 years experience in fine woodworking. I pride myself on having very sharp chisels and plane blades. After using this knife, I think I need to go back to sharpening school. It is sharp. REALLY sharp. Some negative comments were on the handle and the lack of a finish. The handle has a satin finish. You do not want a gloss handle on a blade like this - it would be dangerous if your hand slipped in use - easy to do if your hand is at all wet. The transition from handle to blade is perfectly smooth. Very well done. There are plastic guards on the tip of the blade and also on the choil. I placed these back after cleaning the knife and storing it. Some commented that they did not like the balance of the knife. It is perfectly balanced. Without any doubt this is the best knife I have ever owned. I have already recommended it to others.

Uma obra prima na cutelaria . Qualidade e designer nota 10

très beau produit , coupe extrêmement bien le seul problème au nettoyage si un peut d`eau reçu sur le manche le lustre disparait et revient a l'état brut et nettoyage a la main je n`imagine pas au lave vaisselle ...
