 great knife September 17, 2008
Tujiro (Missouri)
This is a great knife for the price. I am a chef and currently in a Zagat rated restaurant, I cut 100-200 ribs a day and this knife cuts like no other. This is the first single sided beveled knife I have ever used and I love it. It is Way sharp and easy to sharpen with a stone.

I had been looking at many different knives for over a year and I came across many different types and price levels. I tried a few knives at various kitchen stores and I even found some great German knives at good prices.
I purchased a Henckels Henckels International Classic 8-Inch Stainless-Steel Chef's Knife for a line-cook friend and she really liked it and I used it a few times and thought it was a good knife at a good price. I also bought a Wustof Grand Prix Wüsthof Grand Prix 8-Inch Cook's Knife for my former Exec. Chef (I am a restaurant manager) on sale for $40 (the Grand Prix II came out and now the Grand Prixs are reduced).
I found that I really didn't like the German designed knives and I looked at Japanese knives. I really liked the Shun line of knives from KAI but they are truly an investment at $120 for a Shun Classic 8-inch Chef's Knife Shun Classic 8-Inch Chef's Knife. With a little more searching I discovered KAI's Wasabi line and with a little research on the difference between the types of Japanese blade styles I decided to try the 8.25-inch Deba (similar to a European Chef's Knife) and the 6.5-inch Nakiri vegetable knife. I have really been impressed with both knives. The steel is very strong and of great quality. The one-sided blade takes a little getting used to, but the edge stays sharp with a little honing after a few uses. The handle is nice and easy to clean.
I would recommend giving any of the KAI Wasabi line a try. Decide whether you want the multi purpose Santoku (meaning 'three virtues' for its use with meat, fish and vegetables), one of the 3 sizes of Debas (4-inch, 6-inch, 8.25-inch), the Nakiri or the 3 sizes of Sashimi (6-inch, 8-inch and 9.5-inch). I love my 8.25 Deba and Nakiri. I use the Nakiri on vegetables, garlic, herbs and I use the Deba for mincing and other tasks. I want to try the Santoku and the 9.5-inch Sashimi, and since they are less than $20 a piece, why not!

I bought this knife from a catalogue last year, I paid forty dollars for it. I thought that was a very reasonable price for a Kershaw chefs knife , and a very high carbon steel japanese style at that. That was a year ago, I use it in my kitchen at work, I am a professional chef. To this day it is R A Z O R sharp. I simply run it on a steel and occasionaly on a ceramic rod. Dollar for Dollar, this is the best knife I ever bought. I can hardly believe it is only $20 here! Get this knife.

This is a fabulous knife. It is super sharp and feels great in your hand. My friend has several Shun Pro knives and recommended these because I am a more casual cook. I couldn't be happier with my purchase. I also bought the 4 1/2" Deba and the 9 1/2" Yanagiba. The only other knife you might need is a nice paring knife. But these knives will cover all of your needs for a long time. The nicest part is that Kershaw will sharpen them for free. You just pay the shipping. Highly recommended for their quality and value.
