Kiritsuke Chef Knife - Comfort-Pro Series - High Carbon Stainless Steel Knives X50 Cr MoV 15 >> 9" (228mm)

So comfortable! So smart! So sharp! I ordered this and a 4” royal series to compare the two makes so I know which set to get. This wins for most, only downside is the royal series seems sharper, having said that I was using a 4” vs a 9” so obviously weight etc is different. Going to get a 4” comfort pro this weekend to compare better, also buying one for my brothers birthday because he lives the look of them.

Knife arrived in a well made presentation box, giving how sharp it is I will be storing it n the box until ready for use, very well made and considering how long the blade is it’s very light and well balanced and the grip is comfortable and solid. So far only tested on slicing an onion but glided through with no effort producing very thin even slices, far better than my £20 knife of another brand.

Nice knife but not very sharp , was expecting something better for the price

The single piece of high quality steel affords this a lifetime in the kitchen, sharp and nice to use on a variety of food preparation. Best to wash by hand as the handle bleaches a bit in the dishwasher - but a bit of olive oil rejuvenates it’s original look.

This is a very handsome Kiritsuke at an amazing price. It's perfect for students to begin with before they graduate to a Japanese Kiritsuke. The metallurgy is high-class German hygienic and durable. The Logo and etching is very handsome too. The Family manufacturers are justly proud of this product. The presentation case is amazing and environmentally friendly. I really enjoy using my Kiritsuke for fine vegetable work in the Japanese style, and for wider culinary knife tasks. Thanks

Only just received mine and only used for one meal prep so far. Will update this if opinion changes over time. Ok...it feels far lighter in the hand than it looks. Well balanced and easy to use with a normal or pinch grip. The curved blade made quick work of finely mincing garlic and herbs as it gives a nice rocking action. Chopping veg was easy and precise due to sharpness of the blade and control being easier with the excellent grip.

Not sharp at all.

Bought this Japanese style 9" chefs knife. Supplier dispatched promptly and the item arrived as specified. Packaged in a beautiful display/storage case. The knive is perfectly sharp, that is, sharp enough to make working with meat and vegetables a sinch but not overly sharp so the cutting edge is less durable. Very good all rounder chefs knive, well balanced although the 9" blade is a little longer than I am used to, it feels versatile and of the highest quality fabrication and materials. I have always used a 8" chefs knife for all cooking prep so I thought I would be the same for this 9" knife, but I have to admit that I have also purchased the 6" Zelite Comfort-Pro Series as well, which I also recomend highly and this will be used more frequently. However, that being said this chefs knife is far superior to any knife I have used before and I have used professional grade knives in previous jobs as a commie chef and as a fishmonger. I can just tell that both knives will be very easily maintained, retaining a good cutting edge with a limited amount of honing or sharpening and will last a very long time, That being said this will not be going anywhere close to a dishwasher!!!

Super couteaux

Todo perfecto

Ich bin mit dem Messer sehr zufrieden. Mehr braucht man als Koch meines Erachtens nicht. Es ist ein top Messer. Da macht kochen richtig Laune. Sehr scharf und sehr edel. 👏

I loved everything about the knife! As a beginner chef knife I would highly recommend it to anyone. The moment I took it out of the box and held it for the first time I fell in love with it. It's so we'll balanced and has a fantastic transition from the bolster of the knife to the blade. It allows for a sturdier grip on the knife itself while in a maximum comfort. The wieght of the handle balances out the lighter blade and makes it feel as if it where a peace of paper allowing for more dexterity and overall control of the knife itself. The first thing I cut with it was a few tomatoes to test the sharpness. During the cutting I've never had a more controllable knife as well as sharp. I've never had a knife slice through a tomato like this one did. 10/10 would recommend to any and all beginner chefs.

De momento, me gusta todo, afilado y un poco más grande que los cuchillos chef habituales, unos 3 cm, pero está bien compensado. Lo he usado poco por lo que no puedo opinar sobre la durabilidad del filo.
