The 8-12° edge is so sharp it glides through a whole butternut squash like butter, no wobble at all. That Black Spiral Damascus finish hides fingerprints nicely, which is a huge win for a messy cook like me.

First cut through a ripe tomato felt almost effortless—the thin 8-12° edge just glided, zero squish or drag on the board. The black spiral Damascus finish hides smudges way better than my old knife, which is a god-send when you're cooking after work.

The edge out of the box sliced through a ripe tomato like it was air, no squish at all—that 8-12° sharpening is no joke. The spiral pattern on the blade is even more striking in person, and it feels perfectly balanced for my hand.
