Huusk Japanese Bread Knife, 9.7 Inch Long Serrated Bread Knife, Lightweight Slicing Bread Knife for Cutting Homemade Sourdough Bread, Serrated Knife with Gift Box

Very sharp. Makes fine cuts with ease! Well built.

Great knife. Perfect for shaving the skin off fruits and vegetables

The weight balances nicely in my hand. I cut with comfort and ease of holding the knife in my hand and having precision cuts of veggies that are perfectly sliced without stress or much time. Compared with other knives, this knife was less expensive and has a beautiful appearance. The comfort, ease of performance is remarkable! I love this knife!

The media could not be loaded. Holy poop. Such quality 🤌 Literally could not be happier.

Excelent cuality for the price.

The media could not be loaded. I have only used the knife a couple of times and so far I like the feel and finish of the knife. It is VERY SHARP right out of the box. It looks geeat and seems to be a nice addition to the block for the price point. I will purchase other products from them.

The knife itself worked great, but after a couple months of use the blade snapped off the handle. It looks like there is barely anything holding the blade and the handle together. Pretty knife, but I will not be buying from this brand again.

I bought the 6.7" cleaver. The cleaver cuts well , and it is nicely profiled. Unlike a Chinese cleaver or a Japanese nakiri, which both have a blunt end, this Huusk cleaver has a slightly pointed tip, which makes it easier to make delicate cuts.It came moderately sharp. The factory edge is at 18 degrees per side or 36 degrees combined. The steel feels soft. I tried to touch up the edge with a honing steel, but it immediately produced a persistent burr that made the knife feel much duller than before. After stropping on a leather strop loaded with aluminum oxide white rouge, the edge became very sharp and could slide paper with ease.I'm unsure if it's really carbon steel like it says in the product description, because I don't see any staining or rusting after use. It's probably made of stainless steel. It's stamped out of metal sheets and ground to produce the tapered edge profile. It is not a forged knife. The black color on the blade looks like it's made of thick black paint to imitate the look of black scale resulting from genuine forging. The fit and finish is mediocre. The lacquer finish on the handle is rough, and the brass spacers are not flush with the wood.Despite the "Japan" label prominently printed under the Huusk brand name, I'm highly doubtful that this knife was actually made in Japan. It has all the traits of a Chinese-made knife. When a product goes out of its way to tell you "Japan" and uses Japanese buildings in the advertisement to impress you, you should question whether it's genuinely Japanese-made, as opposed to only a Japanese-style knife that was actually made in China.Although the knife works well, I am inclined to give it only 3 stars because there are several areas of deceptive claims: highly doubtful it's made in Japan (probably made in China), not made of carbon steel but rather made of stainless steel, the black forging scales are painted on and are not genuine forging marks. Fit and finish of the handle is very subpar.
