MICHELANGELO Professional Chef Knife 8 Inch Pro, German High Carbon Stainless Steel with Ergonomic Handle, Japanese Knife, for Kitchen - Inch, Etched Damascus Pattern

It is easier to handle and cuts great. You definitely have to be careful as it is sharp

Cheap and sharp.

Good to practice on how to sharpen knifes I teach my cooks at work how to use a wet stone and this is the knife I use so I don’t feel bad if they trash it

Liked this knife for chopping food. Was very sharp out of the box, well packaged, unique design for the pattern on the blade. Not very heavy but wasn't too light once I got used to it. Helps to reduce fatigue from repeated use. Just be careful, it is very sharp!

I love this knife, for food prep. and cooking this is one of the best I have used. I bought several extra's of my camping kit and to give as gift's , it is that good.

Amazing knife cuts through stuff like butter great price, buy this.

I’m very happy with this kitchen knife! For such an affordable price, I got a really good quality knife. It’s sharp, comfortable to use, and works great for everyday cooking. Definitely worth it!

The handle cracked after just a couple uses/washes (hand washed). It's still intact but for how long? It's also a bit thicker than it has to be, thus might be difficult to wield if you have small hands. That said, it cuts, although not the sharpest knife in the world. So far the edge has held up but I haven't used it that many times. The weight is balanced. Its appearance is nice but the laser etching gave me the impression it was a Damascus before placing my order because I wasn't reading carefully enough. There's a hint of rust after leaving it in the drained sink with other items. Overall, it's an effective knife for the time being.
