A great knife

This is my favorite knife & I use it everyday for almost everything! It keeps a great edge & it smoothly cuts everything from tomatoes to rib roasts.

Beautiful knives
September 30, 2019

I purchased the 3 knife box and have since purchased the sharpening stone because I love sharp knives to work with and didn't want to damage them with other knife sharpeners. I am very pleased with my purchases.

1st Real Kitchen Knife
September 30, 2019

I bought the Chuka Bocho Cleaver for my brother as he is a Chef. He loves it, and uses it for a lot of work he does. He likes it because he can chop and scoop ingredients with it quickly. So I decided to give the 7-Inch Santoku Knife a try and it works great for our home kitchen. I can put a good edge on it and it stays that way for a while. Great investment in my opinion.

Date of experience: September 30, 2019
