Joshua W. ★★★★★

The blade's 66-layer Damascus cladding isn't just for looks—it glides through silver skin on salmon like butter. After a full day of prepping, the AUS-10V steel held its edge far longer than my old German knives.

Brian V. ★★★★★

Spent all day breaking down a whole chicken and the AUS-10V core held its edge without a single touch-up. The 66-layer Damascus cladding isn't just for looks either—it glides through joints like they're butter.

Penelope S. ★★★★☆

The blade came frighteningly sharp out of the box, and the AUS-10V steel core has held its edge through a whole week of breaking down chickens. It flexes just enough for tight work around joints, though the handle feels a touch slick when my hands are greasy—nothing a quick wipe doesn't fix.
