First off; I ordered this knife to see what kind of service I would get from Chef Knives To Go (there is a lot more I want to order, but this was my test run). With prices here being 20 to 25% lower than other companies I just wasn't sure what I would get. What I did get was just about perfect. The shipment went out the same day I ordered and it got here fast. The box the knife comes in was even packed with some extra material so that the knife wouldn't bounce around in there...a very thoughtful tactic. The knife arrived in pristine shape and I couldn't be happier...now to get in a Christmas order. Oh, and as for the knife...absolutely beautiful in both form and function. If you're paying this much for a knife you may as well get a work of art too. This is an exceptionably functional display piece for your kitchen.
