Chef's Santoku Knife 7 Inch, Professional Japanese High Carbon Steel Chef Knife, Ultra Sharp Kitchen Knife with Octagonal Rosewood Handle

The HOSHANHO 8-Inch Gyuto Chef Knife instantly elevates the cooking experience with its exceptional craftsmanship and impressive cutting performance. Crafted from 9 layers of high-quality super-carbon steel, this knife maintains outstanding sharpness, effortlessly slicing through anything cooked in kitchen. Its sharp edge retention significantly reduces the need for frequent sharpening, even after prolonged use. The beautiful ergonomic rosewood handle offers superior grip and comfort, making precise cutting tasks easy and fatigue-free. The knife is perfectly balanced, ensuring optimal control and maneuverability, essential for professional chefs and home cooks alike. Visually, its elegant design makes it an attractive addition to any kitchen collection. However, this premium knife requires careful hand-washing to maintain its pristine condition, which may be a minor inconvenience for some. Overall, its superior build quality, cutting performance, and ergonomic comfort justify its value, making it an excellent choice for anyone seeking professional-grade cutlery.

I'm pleased to say that this HOSHANHO 7 inch Nakiri knife has exceeded my expectations. The sharpness is excellent, making quick work of even the toughest vegetables and meat. Edge retention is also impressive, holding its edge well even after heavy use. The handle is a beautiful piece of rosewood, comfortable to hold and providing a secure grip. It's clear that attention was paid to detail when crafting this knife. That being said, I do have one minor issue - the black oxide finish on the blade isn't uniform, and it's starting to fade slightly. However, this doesn't detract from my overall satisfaction with the knife. If you're in the market for a high-quality Japanese-style nakiri, I'd definitely recommend giving the HOSHANHO 7 inch Nakiri a try. While not perfect, its strengths far outweigh its weaknesses.

A beautiful knife. Perfect weight and comfortable to use and hold. Very very sharp!! Comes in a nice presentation box too. Excellent quality and a very good price. Quick delivery too

I use these knives for work and I love them. I work in a kitchen so they get a lot of use everyday and they so far have held up great. No signs of damage or rust and as there are three types of knives in the box they are very versatile. They come packaged with protective plastic and a tip protector for safety and they are incredibly sharp. They were slightly bigger than I expected, especially the handles - but now that I'm used to them I don't notice and they are really nice to work with. My only note would be - before I bought them I read all of the reviews and a few of them were unsure if they were full tang (when the blade has a piece of metal that runs down the middle of the handle for strength and balance) and I don't believe that they are. Whilst the weight of them is nice, there is a slight imbalance as the blade is clearly heavier than the handle. This hasn't been a problem so far but I do worry about the handle snapping off if I were to try and cut through something with a lot of resistance. When they first arrived I inspected them and one of them had a crack down the handle which I wasn't happy with so I exchanged it for a new one which was easy enough to do and the new one absolutely fine. Other than that they look great and they work great, I would purchase again

My Nakiri knife has been so far great to use. It functions well as it say it does. Its very sharp and you can really feel the knife quality when you hold it and when you use it. The handle gives you a very comfortable grip to utilise its function. If you’re looking for a knife with great quality for your meat and vegetables for reasonable price. This is it. Highly recommended.

Really poor quality but then I suppose you get what you pay for. Metal inserts in the handle are sharp and I’m not sure how you could use it without getting hurt.

Fantastic knife. Stylish and has a nice feel to it, weight is also perfect. Arrived very very sharp and makes easy work of anything from meat to vegetables. Comes in a nice box for storage. Arrived quick. Great product and great seller

The best all arounder you got to sharpen it your self tho its sharp out the box but not sharp enough if you know what i mean the best knife for the price range
