Review on 🔪 High Carbon Stainless Steel Chef Knife - 8 Inch VG10 Damascus Blade for Precision Cutting - Ergonomic Pakkawood Handle - Perfect Gift in a Stylish Gift Box by Michelle Wilson

Although I've always tried to stay away from knives with this handle, I'm so glad I chose this one. The handle fits the hand very well. The knife is small enough for precise work, but big enough to do everything that is asked of it. Fanteck offers quality knives at an affordable price. Japanese VG-10 is my blade material of choice. The damask design is amazing, all the colors and materials of the handle go well together and the fit and finish is superb. This is without a doubt the best knife you can get for your money. Many knives of this quality are sold two to three times more expensive than this knife. The knife is ready to use and very sharp! I wanted to test the slicing/chopping ability and found that my wife left the container of strawberries overnight, the berries were a bit soft but the knife cut them through easily. I took some pictures of it and if you look closely you can see that some of the slices are so thin you can see through them. Look for the thinnest cut in my photos, underneath you can see the knife's damask pattern. This knife cuts paper thin. With practice, you'll learn to slice and dice like a pro. The knife is well packaged and makes a great gift. Anyone would be proud to have one. There's even a blade guard to protect the cutting edge when not in use. The knife takes a very, very long time to be sharpened. If you have steel, just work it from time to time to keep it razor sharp.
