Master MaisonSantoku Knife Set 7" Premium German Stainless Steel - Includes Sharpener, Edge Guard, and Gift Box - Sharp Kitchen Knife for Professional Chefs and Home Cooking

This is my 3rd knife from Master Maison and I have loved everything I have purchased from them.They are well manufactured light weight, yet sturdy and sharp. I like the classic look and the handle is comfortable when prepping lots of food. TComes with a sheath to protect the edge while being stored in the drawer as well as a sharpener to keep the edge in tip top condition.This has become my daily prep knife for veggies and boneless meats. After 6 months there isn't a spot of rust, I always hand wash my knives so I'm not sure how it would hold up in the dishwasher.The price point is great, I like their products so much I bought a 15 piece set for my sister as a gift.

I turned 50…um, a while ago…and decided to start eating better, which involves cooking at home. But it took me a while to figure out that it’s a lot easier to prepare meals if you have the right tools. Especially decent knives.I didn’t really know how to pick a good one, but I’m pretty darn impressed with this one. I’ve attached a picture so you can see how solid it looks. It actually feels as solid as it looks, but it’s light weight and feels good in my hand. It was very sharp when I first got it, but I’ve been using it for two meals a day and just had to sharpen it using the nifty sharpener that came with it. It also came with a storage sleeve to keep it nice.Lastly, it comes in a beautiful box and is nicely packaged. I felt like I was opening something very special. Even at this price, it would make a nice gift.

These are super high quality cleavers for an unbelievably good price. I've seen others costing a $100 or more and I don't see how they could be any better than what I received. Best of all they were only a little over a $20 as a matter of fact the second one was about $18 plus tax because I got it on sale. I sent the second one to my 98-year-old grandfather who is a World War II veteran and lives alone. He is extremely healthy and walked 4 miles every day unaided amazing takes zero medications and has about a dozen girlfriends some of them in their 40s. He truly is Superman. My grandfather loves to cook so I send him one of these cleavers and he loves it. I really like mine as well and the little divots on the side of the blade are great because those things really do work they keep food from sticking to it when you cut stuff like cucumbers which are notorious for sticking to your blade they just slide right off but this little row of divots somehow it keeps whatever you cut from clinging to the blade. I highly recommend these to anybody don't waste your money on these hundred dollar jobs these are plenty good enough maybe if you're a professional chef I don't know but I don't see how they would be any better. The blade goes all the way through the handle the handle is actually riveted on either side of the blade itself which is tapered down to the size of a handle. You don't have to worry about the blade coming loose from the handle and flying off when you're chopping injuring yourself or someone else. Plus with the blade will all the way through the handle it gives you a lot more chopping power believe it or not it makes a major difference. Mine came in razor sharp you could literally shave the hair off your arm with it I know because... take my word for it. Just make sure you have your fingers out of the way when chopping unless you're trying to chop one off. Asian chefs use cleavers I saw this one the cooking show and I realized they are much better than the way Western chefs use a knife using the Rock and chop method. If you've ever seen somebody using a cleaver you'll know what I mean. When you cut your food with it you can lay it on the side and slide it up under all the pieces you cut place your hand on top and pick up everything at once and drop it in your bowl or pot much easier than using a knife. Plus when you come to something stiff or something that's really hard to cut you can give it a good whack and chop It Off something you can't do with a knife. You can do everything with a Cleaver you can do with a knife plus a whole lot more. Hope this helps everyone who reads this.God bless y'all.Jimmy in NC....

To be honest, I usually but kitchen knives in sets and really don't know much about quality. And I know how to sharpen them but eventually the cheap knives get hard to keep an edge. This knife looks and feels different. It's heavier than I expected which I'm not sure is a good thing, but it feels strong. The quality seems better than expected. I'm expecting good things.The only thing I can question is the handle. I wanted one with some grippy-ness so some variation in thickness, and curve, and the handle on this is comfortable and has the required grip. But the handle has four distinct planes and the edges are pretty abrupt. I'd rather they were more gently shaped but I don't think it will affect function, so we will see...

This cleaver is too heavy for me to use. I have athritis in my hands and using it is uncomfortable to maneuver. Otherwise it is a beautiful knife. I is very sharp, when i was packing it up to send back I cut 2 fingers.

We have a lot of old knives that just won't keep an edge, and I found myself using steak knives to chop vegetables. I decided it was time to buy a decent chef's knife for daily duty and chose this one because it came with a knife sharpener -- also the price was good, and other customers seem to love this knife.I love it, too, and I've used the accompanying sharpener to give some of our older knives a "tune-up."

I was quite impressed when I received this item. It came in a nice box, well packaged, and even came with a knife sharpener. The knife is heavy and fits my hand nicely. It is very sharp, and I use it mainly as a steak knife. That said, I bought mine for $9.99 a few months ago and I have noticed the price is now $15.99. It's a great knife for $10 but I don't know if I would pay $16 for it.

What a great knife! This knife is sharp but super easy to wield. Cuts through potatoes like butter. That's my barometer. It's pretty lightweight and looks really nice. I love that it comes with the bonus sharpener!

todo bien, exelente calidad y el proptector y el afilador son de mucha ayuda

ME GUSTO MUCHO SU FORMA, FILO MUY BUENO, CUMPLIO MIS FUNCIONES

J'ignore à quel point un couteau de 200 $ ou plus est supérieur à celui-ci, mais la différence ne peut qu'être subtile – très subtile. Que ce soit pour couper des légumes, de la viande ou le bout de vos doigts, cet outil est parfaitement en mesure de faire le travail sans le moindre effort de votre part. C'est un merveilleux couteau – pas la seule lame de qualité que j'aie sous la main pour cuisiner, mais la meilleure, de loin. Les autres deviennent pratiquement superflues. Il pèse un bon poids, bien balancé, et se manie comme un couperet au besoin. Très versatile et fait d'un acier dont la dureté ne laisse aucun doute. L'aiguisoir qui l'accompagne fait du très bon travail aussi.

Me llegó justo lo que imaginé,se ve de muy buena calidad!!

Lo compré de auto regalo y me ha salido muy bueno. Lo uso en cocina en la casa, no es restaurante. La construcción, el peso, el balance, los materiales, el diseño, la hoja, el filo, todo parece de muy buena calidad y funciona bastante bien. La funda no la uso en realidad, pero el afilador me ha servido para otros cuchillos y funciona bien. No es para profesionales pero por el precio obtienes una excelente relación precio-calidad. Muy recomendable.
