Timothy Q. ★★★★★

That sub-zero treatment must be doing something right, because after a month of daily veg prep this edge still glides through tomatoes like they’re butter. The handle’s textured ABS is a nice grip when my hands get sweaty, though it does look a bit plastic next to wooden blocks.

Ruby T. ★★★★★

Out of the box, the edge was frighteningly sharp—that D3 diamond detailing process really pays off. I’ve been using it daily for two weeks and the blade still glides through tomatoes like they’re butter, no drag at all. The faux wood ABS handle keeps my grip secure even when my hands are a bit greas

Ryan I. ★★★★★

The handle feels sturdy and grippy in my hand, even when things get slippery. Also, that sub-zero treatment must be doing something because it took a beating through a whole bag of onions and still slices paper-thin tomatoes like butter.
