+ convex grind on edge makes for a very sharp and sturdy factory edge
+ very pretty
+ really easy to sharpen (as long as you’re ok with losing the convex grind or willing to learn some exotic sharpening techniques).
cons:
- there are harder steels out there,though this is still better than most German knives
- maintaining the convex edge will require going beyond regular whetstones (I’ve read about apparrati built with sand paper glued to a mouse pad...).
- need hands to be dry (more so than most knives) to avoid slipping on steel handle.

Great knife very sharp; light weight and nimble. I really like the fact that it’s really easy to sharpen and holds the edge a lot longer than its German counterparts in my kit. Would have given it a five star ratting but notice that the edge chips very easily so be careful. Other than that this blade is hard to beat cheers!
