Review on πŸ”ͺ DALSTRONG Paring Knife - 3.5" - Gladiator Series - German Forged High-Carbon Steel - Black G10 Handle - Sheath Included- NSF Certified: Top-quality Precision Cutting Tool by Wendy Rodriguez

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Good knife, but there was a flaw.

I have some good knives but this is my first bird's beak. I find it very useful and a good addition to my knife selection. However, the knife had a quality issue upon arrival. The edge of the blade was not properly sharpened on one side of the blade on the half facing the point. I considered returning/exchanging the knife but there were issues with delays, postage etc. So I decided to fix it myself (I'm pretty good at these things). Now you can use the knife. If I had to redo I would buy a higher quality knife (probably Shun) - the quality would almost certainly be higher and the steel in the knife would be harder (61-62 Rockwell versus Dalstrong's 55 Rockwell). ). In my opinion, good Japanese knives cannot be of better quality, even if they are expensive.

Pros
  • Ease of use
Cons
  • Availability of updates
