Ryan O. ★★★★★

That frosted sandblasted finish isn't just for looks—it resists sticking way better than my old blade, and the green handle gives a solid grip even when my hands are a bit greasy from prep. The D3TM sharpening process had it slicing through butternut squash with almost no effort right out of the box

Elizabeth ★★★★★

The 9CR18MOV steel holds its edge beautifully through a full evening of prepping—I only had to hone it once after breaking down a whole chicken and a pile of veggies. The etched, frosted blade’s grip on the handle is solid even with wet hands, though I wish the weight were a touch more balanced towa

Thomas ★★★★★

The frosted finish on the blade gives it a stealthy look, and the 9CR18MOV steel has held its edge through a full week of heavy veggie prep without needing a touch-up. The green handle feels solid and grippy even when my hands are wet from washing it mid-cook.
