Great knife. Good balance, exceptionally sharp. It's great for veggies, though I still need to use two knives to properly cut onions because this doesn't have a tip. I also feel saver leaving it on the counter for short periods of time than I do for my chef's knives. Highly recommend.

Good slicer/vegetable knife.

Surprised by how sharp the knife was out of the box. Being an amateur knife-maker, I super-honed the edge a la Honbazuke method and got it even sharper. Like the fact that it is made out of AUS-10, I know this to be a good steel from my hunting knives.
