Important Care Tips: Always clean TWINŽ Cermax M66 knives by hand, never in the dishwasher. To sharpen, please use a sharpening stone such as TWINŽ Stone Pro or a J.A. HENCKELS Diamond Steel.
Purchase $200 of Henckels knives and accessories and we will include a free bamboo bar board.
The performance of this knife justifies its price. Out of the box,it shaved hairs off my forearm with ease; after some tuning on a set of stones,it took and has held a razor’s edge. The ergonomics are neither as subtle nor as elegant as those found on some knives in the Cermax’s price range (such as the Hattori HD),but the fit and finish are first-rate.
Many who have tried this knife after growing accustomed to Japanese knives find the balance handle-heavy. In fact,the balance sits just behind the middle of the bolster. This will offer users accustomed to western knives a sense of familiarity,while offering improved handling and reduced weight in the hand.
Overall,this knife performs at the level expected of a product in this price range. Ergonomics and personal preferences will determine if this knife suits individual users’ needs.
