🔪 Oxford Chef 8 inch Chef's Knife - Damascus Japanese VG10 Super Steel, Stain & Corrosion Resistant, Razor Sharp Blade, High Edge Retention Review

This Oxford knife is beautiful and durable. Its balance, however, is not quite what is described as "perfectly balanced". It doesn't fit in my hand. The handle is heavier than the blade, it tends to slip out of my hand when I try to pick it up and after a while after cutting, my wrist gets tired because of the effort to keep the handle tight and to slam . Down force for slicing food. I returned it.

Update: Kitchen Knife Depot Customer Service went out of their way to resolve any issues with my purchase. The knife is essentially a no risk purchase as they want a happy customer. Upgrade from 2 to 4 stars! Initial Rating: Bought because of the good reviews. Maybe I was lucky, but the color (icon "OS") was sloppy. The metal symbol/inlay on the black part of the grips has been removed. There were scratches/dents on the handles.

Nice presentation and very easy to use. Unfortunately, the back of the handle is not properly sealed. The blade is also scratched on one side. UPDATE: If I have to mention anything about this product, it's the customer service is amazing, they went above and beyond to ensure my experience with their knife was what they were looking for. The knife is great and very sharp. Knowing that they will reply and greet me whenever I have a problem to solve will definitely make me buy their products…

If you are looking for a very sharp knife that is comfortable to hold (maybe a little heavier) then this is the knife for you. I have one of the original Japanese-made predecessors of this knife. These are nice knives, but they are made in China (at least that's what the literature says). I've been using it for about 5 months now and can easily use a prep knife. The only problem I have is not with the knife but with their website. You get a 25% discount on your next purchase on their website…

One thing I check as soon as I get a new knife, can it cut through a tomato without much effort? For this knife, the answer is: somehow. It can cut through a tomato without crushing it but doesn't slip over it like you would expect from a knife in this price range, it's more of an average quality knife that's well made but not properly sharpened. Can cut meat much better than my old $10 knife, but at a huge price increase it's not worth it. The grip feels good and it was light enough to be easy

I was very surprised when I received this knife. The packaging is original. Before you even pull out your knife, you'll be greeted with a flawless presentation. This company knows how to present their product. As a longtime knife enthusiast, the first thing I did when I pulled out my knife was a shave test. Let me tell you, a knife has never cut through my arm hair so quickly. This knife is sharp right out of the box. When it comes to cooking, this knife will not disappoint. In our house I cook

My husband bought me three Oxford Chef knives for Christmas 2020 - Santoku 7", Kirisuke Chef's 8" and Utility (Petty) 6". He was very doubt I would like these knives. They are beautiful. They are functional. Love how well balanced they are. I used them for our dinner at Christmas; these knives cut veggies easily. I have other high quality knives; these knives are just as good or even better "I just had to order more to complete your custom set! As for my thoughts on the bad reviews, the knives…
