Decent for price.

Makes a great chef knife for everyday use. Keep your money knives put up. It arrived very sharp, have not had it long but have not had to sharpen it yet. I sharpen my knives often so am not really worried about that. Thick spine, has some weight, nice wood handle, feels great in hand.

Holds an Edge; Easy to Handle

The Coolina Altomino Chef's Knife was something I'd wanted to try after several failed attempts at searching for a decent chef's knife in this configuration.The knife is sharp-sharp-sharp and holds an edge for quite a while. It does especially well with fruits and vegetables (my primary use for chopping/dicing), but also handles meats well if they are mostly defrosted yet can provide a little resistance when slicing through the meat. (I usually slice chicken or pork with the Coolina, it does well for either application.)If the edge dulls a little, be sure to use a quality 2-step knife sharpener that "cures" the edge, then hones it to razor-sharpness. It's wise that once you've finished with the knife that you rinse it with dish soap and water, then dry it immediately and wipe the exposed blade with a paper towel and a little olive oil, then wipe again with a dry paper towel to remove any residual oil. Doing so prevents rust.This product is not stainless-steel, but forged-hardened steel that will rust if neglected. Best to store this either in its cloth bag, or on a magnetic knife strip attached to your kitchen wall.

Rust Spots, poor quality. Not worth your money.

Upon opening my package, the knife had some sort of oil lubricant on it and was wrapped up in a plastic wrap. Once the knife was washed, after a while of sitting on the dish rack, it started to show some spots of rust. Washed it twice and still showed spots of rust. This product isn’t quality. Don’trecommend buying this product.

Sharp!

Was actually thinking it was going to be a bigger knife. It definitely fits your hand and cuts great out of the box, anxious to see how well it holds an edge. I am still waiting on my wood cutting board but this one will do. It’s a thick blade with good weight, but then again it better be for $160

Great Knife

Unfortunately, right after I purchased this item as a gift for a nephew there was a BOGO offer... wish it had come out a few hours before I placed the order!
