Impressed, but not blown away.Posted By: Jordan

When I first received this knife, I must admit that I was a tiny bit worried. Visually, mostly, as the blade-to-handle ratio was wonky (standard Wa handle.) In use, though, it proved to be a non-issue. Out-of-box sharpness was respectable, and it has performed all the tasks expectedly, in all of the grips I've used it for. Food release leaves a little to be desired (but maybe I'm just spoiled with my Takeda.) Spine is a little thicker than I would like, but hasn't proven to be a big issue. Overall, impressed, but not blown away.

Love this Little PettyPosted By: Brian - verified customer
My first White Steel blade. Absolutely love it. My particular blade was 83 mm. The nashiji stainless cladding is something to behold. Such a gorgeous knife. I wish I had more of it, so I'll be picking up a gyuto in the Yuki line. It's that nice.The fit and finish is excellent. The blade aesthetics are my personal favorite. Red/Light colored handle is extremely appealing to me. The small amount of work I've done with it has been a pleasure. Edge OOTB was excellent. I did not order the sharpening service. I just balsa & leather stropped it and it shaves hair. Have only had it and used it about two weeks, but I want another.Thanks so much Mark & Sue.
