I got this because of how it looked but performance wise it’s just average for me. The tip is useful but I find it a bit awkward for everyday chopping. Maybe I need to get used to it more. It’s fine.
Gaz Watts (verified owner) –
Cant believe how sharp this is. I’ve been using it daily for about a month now and its still holding its edge brilliantly. The balance feels really natural in my hand.
Bex B. (verified owner) –
Been after a kiritsuke for a while and this one ticked all the boxes. The flat profile makes chopping herbs a dream, no more accordion bits. And it’s really comfortable to use for long prep sessions.
Craig Fox (verified owner) –
Very pleased with this purchase. The blade is sharp and the damascus pattern looks smart. If I had to nitpick I’d say the handle could be a tiny bit thicker for my large hands but it’s not a dealbreaker.
Dan (verified owner) –
It’s a decent knife, I mean it cuts and feels solid but I wasn’t blown away. For the price I expected it to feel a bit more special? The sharpness was ok but not dramatically better than my old supermarket knife.
Becky D. (verified owner) –
The knife looks the part with the damascus pattern but honestly it’s just ok. I found the edge needed a bit of work on a whetstone to get it properly sharp. It’s a nice knife but I think I expected a bit more for nearly £70.

The Damascus cladding is even more beautiful in person. I find myself just staring at it sometimes. Sharpness out the box was spot on, and it’s made quick work of all my sunday roast prep.
