Review on Okami Knives 8-inch Japanese Damascus Stainless Steel Chef Knife - High Carbon Sharp Kitchen Cutlery, Lightweight & Ergonomic Gyuto by Mary Beauchene

Looking at the other reviews on this knife I really appreciate how the company took the time to respond to each one. A small thing, but I noticed it. As for the knife itself, I never noticed my other knives were heavy until I used this knife. Its sharpness is deceptive, as it feels a bit dull on an ineffective finger test, but slips through as soon as you start slicing. Tomatoes were of course the first thing I tried :). And its beauty is undeniable; Appearance isn't everything, but if something can be practical and beautiful, I'm happy. I had no problems with the pen size, I think it's just the right size. It has a narrower handle than my previous knife, but in my opinion this is not a minus. I am very satisfied with this knife. If they ever make a longer one, I'd buy that too.
