What I was looking for in a budget knife

Knife has good weight to it. Finally had a chance to use it and it's got a sharp edge and worked fantastic to cut meat and vegetables with. Good for the money and I got it on sale.

Doesn’t have a full tang

Knife is okay. Doesn’t seem to be full tsng, handle I had cracks in it. Not sure how much longer it will last. It has been my main and does keep an edge,Would buy something better for the money this cost at the time.

Look no further

I had purchased a Japanese knife about 2 1/2 years ago and I’ve always loved that knife that I barely use it! So I decided to indulge in the same knife technology! So I tried to re-order the previous one, but I couldn’t find it. However, I found this company and I was a little bit scared because it is an investment for one piece! To be honest so worth the investment… this knife actually exceeded my expectation. I thought my previously purchased knife was amazing until I stumbled on this brand! I am so excited that I will now create my own set using the same company and hopefully they have the different sizes. I always find the set not as great as the single ones ..unless they have a set this perfect, I’m in! I will email the company and I will update my review😊

Great knife for the price

I've only had this knife for about a week. I picked it up on sale at Amazon and its well worth the money. Out of the box its sharpness is on par with my high end 8" Japanese chef knife (that cost 3 times what i paid for the Yokashi).I like the balance and weight of this knife a lot. its somewhere between the heft of a German knife and the lightness of my Japanese knife. It slides through everything I've throw at it with ease.Aesthetically, its a beautiful knife. I highly recommend this knife to anyone. If they made a paring knife and a nakiri knife in this same style I would buy them immediately.
