Timeless

I went in store to experience the feel of the knives in my hand. I have quite small hands so anything too heavy feels burdensome and clunky. When I picked this one up it was the most natural feel, like an extension on my arm. It cuts, of course, perfectly. And it's simply so beautifully, I can't wait to treasure this forever.

Hard and sharp as carbon steel, but hassle free

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This knife is extremely sharp and of high quality. Though it is made from stainless, it actually feels similar to Kramer”s carbon steel knives. I am a big fan of this product line.
