| Great knife I bought this knife as part of the 15 piece set. As with all the knives in the set (see review), it is a wonderful example of the knife makers art. Everything from design to execution is on par with any knife produced in Germany. They just feel right in your hand. The steel is a great compromise between stain resistance, and edge keeping ability. A simple rinse and wipe keeps it looking new, yet a few strokes on a whetstone bring it to a razors edge. These are knives that you will be proud to own. |
| Excellent all-purpose knife I'm not a chef nor much of a cook so I want and need just one all-purpose knife in the kitchen for most jobs. This knife is perfect. I love the feel, heft, and size. It's also WONDERFUL to have a sharp knife in the house!! This purchase has taught me that knives are one of those things where you truly get what you pay for. WORTH EVERY PENNY. |
| This is an excellent choice Recently, I picked up this knife on sale at a local store and was very pleased with the quality and value it affords. I have long been a fan of Calphalon cookware and my impression now is that this same quality extends to their cutlery line as well. The blade was pretty sharp right out of the package, and with just a bit of work it was very sharp. The size and heft of this knife are very comfortable in my hand, and I find myself selecting this one from the knife drawer whenever I have a kitchen task where a full sized chef's knife would be overkill. I highly recommend this purchase! |
| Excellent knife My grandparents always had quality knives when I was growing up. As I stocked my own kitchen, I searched for the best quality I could afford. I've tried Henkels and Chicago and both were disappointing. I bought this knife and was so impressed that I bought another and also bought one for my mother. It is superb in quality and comfort. I prefer the traditional handle over the contemporary handle. I put this knife in the diswasher and have had no problem with the handle. Great buy. |
| I can't say enough good things about this knife! This knife is very heavy, & is perfect for slicing & dicing. It is very sharp, & will cut through anything with ease. I plan to buy more of knives by this manufacturer. I have a full set of Calaphon cookware, & you can't go wrong with this brand. It has a full tang, & a lifetime guarantee. |
| Very nice knife I suspect if I was a professional chef I would know the difference and buy the super expensive other brands, but for a recreational cook I find these knives to be supurb. The price is right, the balance and heft is great, and they hold a fine edge. I usually run them through a hand sharpener before I use them, and they are always razor sharp. To restore edges (I haven't had to do that yet with these knives) I use the scary sharp sandpaper on glass method. |
| Nicely made, but could be sharper A beautiful Chinese-made replica of a German kitchen knife. Looks very impressive for the price. However, even though it claims to be made from German steel , I find that it does not hold a sharp edge for very long. If you have a habit of sharpening your knives often, this is not a problem; a few passes with the sharpening steel, and it's good to go. Certainly a decent value. |
